EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time in the early 20th century, on a bustling Edwardian street corner, this man with a shockingly red nose and a quizzical expression was causing quite the stir. Dressed in a smart tailcoat and top hat, he held a cane in one hand and a pipe in the other, looking every inch the upper-class gentleman. But as the crowd gathered, it became clear that this man was anything but refined. The man's red nose was not the result of a rosy complexion or a brisk winter's day, but rather the telltale sign of an evening spent imbibing a few too many libations. The onlookers, a mix of men in bowler hats and women in elegant gowns, couldn't help but chuckle at the unexpected sight. One man, with a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth, exclaimed, "I thought you was the comet!" The reference to the recent sighting of Halley's Comet was a clever and sarcastic way to lighten the mood. The man with the red nose, taken aback by the comment, let out a hearty laugh, clearly amused by the situation. This comic postcard captures the essence of a bygone era, where the unexpected could bring a moment of joy and levity to even the most formal of occasions. The man with the red nose may have been surprised by the comment, but the crowd's reaction shows that sometimes, a little bit of humor is all it takes to brighten up the day.
