EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous illustration by H. M. Bateman captures the essence of a stereotypical Scotsman who certainly got his money's worth at lunch. The rotund and satisfied man is depicted sitting at a restaurant table, surrounded by a tall pile of empty plates as a waiter removes them one by one. This satirical image pokes fun at the myth that Scottish people are traditionally miserly, showing this particular individual breaking free from that stereotype with gusto.
The scene is filled with historical references and cultural nuances, making it a fascinating snapshot of early 20th-century humor. The detail in Bateman's illustration brings to life the idea of someone determined to get their fill on a set price lunch menu, no matter how much food they have to consume.
Overall, this picture perfectly encapsulates the concept of getting your money's worth while dining out - even if it means eating everything in sight! It serves as a reminder not to judge based on stereotypes and showcases the joy that can come from indulging in good food without restraint.
