Title: "A Bit Cozy at the Seaside!" - A Humorous 20th Century Comic Postcard This quirky and amusing comic postcard, dated from the 20th century, depicts a scene of a crowded hotel room in a seaside resort. The room is filled to the brim with men, each trying to find a comfortable spot to sleep amidst the chaos. The man in the foreground, looking rather disgruntled, lies on a bed that seems to be barely large enough for one person, let alone the several others crammed into the room. The comic element of this postcard comes from the exaggerated expressions and body language of the men, each trying to get some rest despite the lack of personal space. One man in the bottom right corner is even shown hanging from the window frame, presumably trying to catch a breath of fresh air. The room is adorned with mismatched furniture, including a tiny table with a teapot and cups, adding to the chaotic and humorous scene. This postcard is a delightful representation of the British seaside holiday experience, where families and travelers would often have to make do with cramped and overcrowded accommodations. The comic style of the illustration adds a lighthearted and fun touch to what could have been an uncomfortable situation. The postcard is a great reminder of the simpler joys of a holiday by the sea, even when things don't go quite as planned! Artist: Donald McGill (not to be confused with the McGill Company)
