A Hearty Appetite for the Seaside!
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightfully humorous comic postcard from the 20th century, published by the renowned British firm, Donald McGill, captures the essence of a classic British seaside holiday. The scene unfolds on a sunny day at the beach, where a plump, jovial man in a striped blazer and trousers, donning a straw boater hat, is enjoying a well-deserved break. With a satisfied grin on his face, he leans back on a striped deck chair, one hand holding a bottle of beer and the other reaching for a sandwich. A bottle and a half of beer and two sandwiches are scattered around him, along with tomatoes, bananas, and currant buns, evidence of his hearty appetite. In the background, the sparkling blue sea meets the sandy beach, with a few sunbathers and children playing in the water. The man's expression and the abundance of food suggest that he's in no rush to leave his idyllic spot. This comic postcard, with its humorous take on a man's enjoyment of a seaside picnic, is a testament to the simple pleasures of a British holiday by the sea. It is a charming reminder of a bygone era, filled with laughter, relaxation, and delicious food.
