EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful comic postcard, titled "Drinking man and vicar," showcases a humorous encounter between an inebriated man and a surprised vicar on a bustling British street. The man, with a bottle of beer in hand and a pipe clenched between his teeth, appears to be in a state of jovial contentment, oblivious to the disapproving gaze of the vicar. The vicar, with his collared shirt, cross, and serious expression, stands nearby, seemingly taken aback by the man's unconventional behavior. The man's response to the vicar's disapproval is priceless - he reaches into his pocket and pulls out another bottle, revealing his hidden stash. The vicar's reaction is not shown, but one can only imagine his shock and disbelief. The man's carefree attitude and the vicar's stern demeanor create a perfect contrast, making this postcard a fun and humorous depiction of the unexpected twists and turns of everyday life. This charming image is a wonderful example of the playful and irreverent humor that was popular in British comic postcards during the 20th century. It is a reminder of a time when simple pleasures and unexpected encounters could bring joy and amusement to everyday life. The use of bold colors, expressive faces, and exaggerated body language add to the overall humor and appeal of this classic postcard.
