EDITORS COMMENTS
In this humorous and captivating color photo print, we are presented with the intriguing backstory behind a man's adoption of kilts as his preferred attire. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image showcases a postcard from a private collection that humorously depicts "The reason why I took to wearing kilts". Set in what appears to be a close and intimate bedroom scene, the comic element is immediately apparent. The protagonist stands proudly before us, donning a kilt that seems rather tight for comfort. His wife looks on with amusement, clearly finding her husband's choice of clothing both amusing and endearing. This snapshot captures the essence of humor through its clever composition and playful subject matter. It invites viewers to ponder what could possibly drive someone to embrace such unconventional fashion choices. Perhaps it was driven by financial constraints or simply an affinity for Scottish culture. Regardless of the reason behind his decision, this photograph reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously. It serves as a lighthearted reminder that sometimes we all need a little laughter in our lives – even if it means squeezing into some snug-fitting kilts! Overall, this delightful postcard offers an entertaining glimpse into one man's sartorial journey while showcasing the wit and creativity often found in vintage comic imagery like those produced by Bamforth during their heyday in Scotland.
