EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful and humorous 20th-century comic postcard captures the whimsical encounter between a pretty young woman and a surprised vicar on the beach. The scene unfolds on a quintessential British seaside holiday, where the woman, dressed in a red summer dress and stockings with suspenders, is playfully lifting her skirt to feel the cool sea breeze against her legs. Unsuspecting, the clergyman, with his back turned, is momentarily taken aback as he takes a leisurely stroll along the shoreline. The wind in his collar and the waves crashing against the cliffs in the background add to the lively and carefree atmosphere. This charming postcard, published by the renowned Donald McGill company, is a classic example of the naughty and morally ambiguous humor that was popular during the 20th century. The woman's revealing skirt and the vicar's shocked expression provide a playful commentary on societal norms and the allure of the seaside. The postcard's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, making it a fun and collectible piece of nostalgic British humor.
