EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful comic postcard from the 20th century captures the playful and humorous nature of courtship in an era gone by. The image features a charming couple seated on a plush sofa, gazing into each other's eyes with a hint of mischief. The woman, dressed in a bold red dress with a low neckline, looks seductively at her partner, while the man, with a bashful expression, holds her hand protectively. The caption above their heads reads, "Holding you like this brings out the animal in me! - Never mind, I'm not afraid of mice!" The double entendre in the caption adds an extra layer of fun and humor to the scene. The phrase "animal in me" could be interpreted in a few ways - perhaps referring to the passion and intensity of their feelings for each other, or maybe even a more literal interpretation, as the man's protective gesture may remind the woman of a cuddly and comforting animal companion. The addition of "never mind, I'm not afraid of mice!" adds a lighthearted and self-deprecating tone, further emphasizing the couple's playful and good-natured banter. This postcard is a wonderful example of the wit and charm of British comic art, and is reminiscent of the work of renowned illustrators such as Donald McGill. The couple's timid and wimpish expressions add to the overall sense of fun and lightheartedness, making this a truly delightful and endearing piece of art from the past.
