EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hearty Laugh: A Scotsman Ponders the Cost of a Haircut in the 20th Century (Comic postcard, Scotsman outside barbershop, Date: 20th century) This delightful comic postcard captures the essence of Scottish humor and the economy of the 20th century. The image features a jovial Scotsman standing outside a barber shop, deep in thought as he counts out coins from his sporran to pay for his haircut. His companion, also in full Scottish regalia, chats amicably with the barber, who seems to be answering a question with a knowing smile. The Scotsman's expression is priceless as he meticulously counts his pennies, ensuring he has enough for the haircut and perhaps a wee dram afterwards. His careful consideration of every coin is a testament to the economical spirit of the time, where every penny counted. This charming postcard, created by the renowned Scottish humorist Donald McGill, is a fun and lighthearted reminder of a bygone era. The men's casual banter and the Scotsman's determination to get the best value for his money make for an endearing and humorous scene. The postcard's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, transporting us back to a time when a simple haircut was an occasion to be savored and shared with friends. This comic postcard is a must-have for anyone who appreciates a good laugh and a glimpse into the past.
