EDITORS COMMENTS
A Bit on the Side - A Humorous Take on a Doctor's Visit in the 20th Century This delightful comic postcard, dated from the 20th century, captures the essence of a light-hearted doctor's appointment between a husband and wife. The image portrays a rotund couple, both with broad grins on their faces, as they enter a doctor's office. The man, with a jovial expression, holds the door open for his wife, who is noticeably larger than him. The doctor, a thin, stern-looking man, sits at his desk with a quizzical expression, seemingly unaware of the double entendre in the situation. The title of the postcard, "A Bit on the Side," adds to the humor, as it can be interpreted in two ways - a reference to the wife's size and the doctor's location in the room. The use of humor in this postcard is a common theme in British comic art, which often tackled taboo subjects with a light-hearted approach. The couple's appearance, with their rosy cheeks and cheerful expressions, suggests that they take their health matters in stride, despite their weight. The doctor's bemused expression hints at the unexpected nature of their visit, adding to the overall fun and lightness of the scene. This charming postcard is a reminder of the importance of maintaining a sense of humor, even in the face of health concerns. It also showcases the unique and often humorous way that the British approached medical issues in the 20th century.
