"McGill: A Timeless Comic Journey Through the 20th Century" Step into the whimsical world of McGill, where laughter knows no bounds. This collection of comic postcards, featuring Donald McGill's self-portrait and witty illustrations, takes us on a delightful journey through time. Travel back to circa 1918 during World War I as England and France unite in humor with a hilarious postcard that reminds us of their unbreakable bond. Then, fast forward to the carefree days of the 20th century when flowers bloomed in parks, adding color to our lives. Witness men strolling past shop windows, captivated by amusing scenes that bring smiles to their faces. And who can forget the sight of an enormous man frolicking in the sea with a bewildered woman? These comical moments remind us that life is meant to be enjoyed without taking ourselves too seriously. In one memorable scene, we find a little girl marooned on a pile of sand at the seaside – her misadventure captured perfectly by McGill's wit. Another card playfully mentions being born on St Swithins Day - an ode to all those quirky birth dates that make each person unique. It also unveils humorous encounters between social classes; from an elegant woman engaging in conversation with her cleaning lady while donning expensive underwear, to another lady placing bets both ways at the races alongside a bookie. These snapshots highlight society's quirks and remind us not to judge based on appearances alone. The collection wouldn't be complete without some classic Donald McGill innuendo. From dirty collars causing mischief to accidents involving bacon slicers – these cheeky cards never fail to tickle our funny bones. Finally, we encounter a larger-than-life woman confidently strutting along the beach in her vibrant red swimsuit. Her presence exudes joy and self-acceptance as she embraces herself just as she is.
