EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hearty Dose of Sea Breezes: A Scotsman's Economical Remedy for His Wife's Illness! This delightful comic postcard from the 20th century, published by the renowned Scottish humourist Donald McGill, showcases a Scotsman in full traditional regalia, complete with kilt, sporran, and tartan, providing his wife with a generous dose of sea breezes. The scene takes place on the shores of a picturesque Scottish loch, with the man's face contorted in an exaggerated expression of effort as he wafts the cool, refreshing air towards his wife, who sits in a chair, looking decidedly unimpressed. The couple's surroundings are filled with the quintessential Scottish charm, with a crate of fresh kippers nearby, adding to the humorous and lighthearted tone of the image. The caption above the scene reads, "Providing Sea Breezes on the Cheap," poking fun at the Scotsman's economical approach to his wife's health treatment. This charming postcard, with its clever use of humour and Scottish imagery, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Donald McGill's comic postcards, which continue to delight collectors and history enthusiasts alike. Whether you're a fan of Scottish culture, humour, or simply a lover of vintage postcards, this image is sure to bring a smile to your face!
