Title: A Chicken Tale of Love and Flirtation This delightful comic postcard, dated from the 20th century, captures the playful and humorous side of the natural world. The image features a cockerel and a hen locked in a flirtatious dance, reminiscent of human courtship. The cockerel, with a proud and confident strut, extends a foot to offer an egg to the hen, who playfully turns her back, feigning disinterest. The hen, with a mischievous twinkle in her eye, seems to be enjoying the game of love and eggs her suitor on. The charming illustration is a testament to the whimsical and lighthearted sense of humor that was popular during this era. The intricate details of the feathers, the expressive eyes of the birds, and the lush green background all contribute to the visual appeal of this postcard. This comic postcard is a wonderful reminder of the simple joys of nature and the universal language of love and flirtation. It is a fun and quirky addition to any collection of vintage postcards or a thoughtful gift for someone with a sense of humor and appreciation for the natural world. The illustration is by the renowned British artist Donald McGill, who was known for his humorous and saucy postcard designs. This particular design, however, showcases his lighter and more playful side, making it a true gem in his extensive body of work.
