EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of Bermuda in this charming postcard from the 1910s! Picture a scene of tropical bliss, where the sun always seems to shine, and the gentle waves lap at the pristine shores. But hold on a moment, something's amiss in this modern paradise. Instead of the classic temptation of a forbidden apple, the Bermudan lady in this quirky image is enticed by the allure of a giant onion! Yes, you heard that right, an onion! Bermuda, known for its stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters, also boasts a thriving onion industry. These succulent bulbs are not only a staple in local cuisine but also a significant export crop. As you gaze at this humorous greetings card, notice the donkey in the background, a common sight in Bermuda during that era. These hardworking animals were often used to pull small carts, carriages, and wagons. But in this surreal scene, even the donkey seems to be in on the joke, munching on an onion of its own! This unusual postcard, with its playful twist on the classic apple temptation tale, is sure to bring a smile to your face. So, next time you find yourself craving a taste of Bermuda, remember - blessed is the man who comes to Bermuda and is tempted to eat a sweet onion instead!
