A Hilarious Conversation on the Promenade Date: Early 20th Century This delightful comic postcard, titled "A Hilarious Conversation on the Promenade," captures the essence of a light-hearted moment between three individuals on a sunny day at the seaside. The scene is set on a bustling promenade, with the man in the foreground donning a striped blazer and shorts, and two women in woollen stockings and summer dresses, chatting animatedly while leaning on the railings. The man, with a smirk on his face, appears to be engaging in a humorous conversation with the women, who are clearly amused by his words. The woman on the left, with her hand on her hip, seems to be laughing out loud, while the other woman, with her hand covering her mouth, tries to stifle her giggles. The contrast between the man's bare legs in shorts and the women's unattractive woollen stockings adds an element of humor to the image. The man's unkempt appearance, with his untucked shirt and disheveled hair, further emphasizes the playful nature of the scene. This postcard, reminiscent of the works of renowned British comic artist Donald McGill, is a testament to the simple joys of summer holidays and the amusing conversations that often take place on the promenade. The postcard's humorous tone and charming illustration make it a must-have for any collection of vintage comic art or nostalgic memorabilia.
