A Tipple Too Many,
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Donald McGill, 20th Century Comic Postcard This delightfully humorous and light-hearted comic postcard, titled "A Tipple Too Many," by renowned British satirical artist Donald McGill, captures the unexpected encounter between a drunk man and a woman in the street. The scene is set in the bustling, lively atmosphere of the city, with passersby going about their business, oblivious to the unfolding drama. The drunk man, with a mischievous twinkle in his eye and a bottle clutched in his hand, approaches the unsuspecting woman, who looks shocked and taken aback by his sudden advances. Her expression is one of surprise and disbelief, as she clutches her shopping bag and umbrella tightly, bracing herself for the encounter. The man, in his inebriated state, leans in close, gesturing wildly with his free hand, no doubt sharing some inappropriate and humorous comment. The woman, unable to contain her embarrassment any longer, faints dead away, her frilly white knickers peeking out from beneath her skirt as she drops to the ground, her shopping bag and umbrella scattering in all directions. The man, taken aback by the turn of events, looks on in shock and disbelief, with a mixture of amusement and concern etched on his face. This comic postcard, with its humorous and light-hearted take on the everyday, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Donald McGill's work and the unique ability of comedy to bring joy and laughter to our lives. Whether displayed in a collection or sent as a thoughtful gift, "A Tipple Too Many" is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who appreciates a good laugh.
