Two Women and a Man at the Seaside: A Comically 'Fresh' Moment from the 20th Century! This delightfully humorous comic postcard from the 20th century captures the essence of a lively day at the beach. Two glamorous women, dressed in their Sunday best, sit on a bench overlooking the sea. One woman applies powder to her face with a puff, while her friend looks on with a knowing smile. A man, who appears to have just emerged from the water, approaches the bench, carrying a large, questionable-looking egg. The women's expressions suggest that they have already deciphered the double entendre of the man's actions, adding to the lighthearted and fun atmosphere of the scene. The women's fashionable attire and the man's casual beachwear highlight the contrast between the formal and the informal, adding to the comedic effect. The cliff path and grassy area in the background provide a picturesque backdrop to the trio's seaside adventure. The women's enjoyment is palpable, and their smiles radiate the joy and excitement of a summer holiday. This comic postcard is a testament to the power of verbal wit and the playful nature of British humour. Its suggestive yet innocent theme continues to amuse and entertain, making it a timeless treasure from the 20th century.
