Women See Man Leaving Gents
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Humorous 20th Century Comic Postcard This delightful comic postcard, titled "Women See Man Leaving Gents," is a classic example of British humour from the 20th century. The image depicts a scene on a busy city street, where a group of women are gathered on the pavement, chatting and gossiping amongst themselves. Their attention is focused on a man in a hat and overcoat, who is exiting the gents' toilet in the background. The humour in this postcard lies in the double entendre of the situation. The women's expressions suggest that they are speculating about the man's reason for leaving the gents, with one woman pointing and another covering her mouth in shock. The title of the postcard adds to the innuendo, implying that the women are seeing more than just a man leaving the toilet. The illustration style is reminiscent of the works of renowned comic postcard artists such as Donald McGill and the McGill's Rude Series. The women are depicted in various ages and stages of life, from young and slim to middle-aged and frumpish, adding to the relatability and universality of the scene. The man in the scene is portrayed as an everyman figure, with no distinguishing features other than his hat and overcoat. His expression is neutral, oblivious to the women's speculation. The use of simple, bold lines and bright colours adds to the playful and light-hearted tone of the postcard. Overall, "Women See Man Leaving Gents" is a charming and humorous snapshot of 20th century British culture, showcasing the wit and humour that was often found in everyday life.
