EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Don't Get Pinchéd for Following the Fashions: A Daring Beachward Bound Gentleman and His Long Johns" In this delightfully saucy and humorous 1930s comic postcard, a dapper gentleman, oblivious to the disapproving gaze of a stern policeman, confidently strides towards the beach in a bold fashion statement. The audacious chap, wearing long johns as an alternative to the popular beach pajamas sported by his female counterparts, is determined to keep up with the latest fashion trends. The scene is set against the backdrop of a bustling seaside resort, where the sun shines brightly and the sound of laughter and excitement fills the air. The gentlemen's companions, clad in elegant pajamas and parasols, frolic in the sand and water, seemingly unfazed by the man's unconventional choice of attire. The policeman, clad in a crisp uniform and donning a bowler hat, looks on in disbelief and disapproval. With a stern expression and a raised eyebrow, he attempts to apprehend the foolish gent, who remains undeterred by the impending arrest. The scene is filled with a sense of confusion, humor, and the lighthearted spirit of the era. This charming postcard, from the Mary Evans / Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, is a delightful reminder of the saucy seaside humor that was popular during the 1930s. The image, with its playful take on fashion, arrests, and the unexpected, is sure to bring a smile to the face of any viewer.
