Hot Bath Before Retiring
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Delightfully Humorous 20th Century Comic Postcard Step back in time with this charming and amusingly British comic postcard, titled "Hot Bath Before Retiring," from the 20th century. Featuring a plump, contented woman soaking in a steaming hot bath, she gazes blissfully at her husband, who sits on the edge of the tub, puffing on a pipe and reading the newspaper. The caption above their heads reads, "Plenty of Time for a Verbal Discussion." The humor in this postcard lies in the double entendre of the phrase "Plenty of Time for a Verbal Discussion." While the scene appears peaceful and romantic, the phrase suggests that the couple may be engaging in a lively, perhaps even heated, conversation. The use of the word "verbal" adds an element of fun and playfulness to the situation, as the couple seems to be enjoying each other's company and engaging in a bit of light-hearted banter. The comic style of the postcard adds to its appeal, with the exaggerated features of the couple and the expressive body language of the woman, who seems to be fully immersed in the warm water. The man, with his pipe and newspaper, is a classic representation of a relaxed, retired husband. This postcard is a delightful reminder of the simple pleasures of domestic life and the importance of humor and connection in a relationship. Whether displayed in a vintage collection or used as a unique and fun greeting card, "Hot Bath Before Retiring" is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who appreciates a good laugh and a bit of British humor.
