EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Hilarious Misunderstanding: Two Middle-Aged Women Gossiping About the Vicar's Stipend (Comic Postcard) 2. Caption: In this delightfully humorous and quintessentially British comic postcard from the 20th century, two middle-aged women are deep in conversation on a rainy street corner. Clad in their best rain gear - one in a red raincoat and umbrella, the other in a blue raincoat and a fur hat - they appear oblivious to the passing world around them. The women's animated chat revolves around the recent news of the vicar's stipend being cut down. One woman, with a knowing smile and a knowing wink, exclaims, "I do declare, the vicar's stipend has been cut down something shocking!" Her companion, a tad slow on the uptake, replies with a puzzled expression, "Oh dear, I do hope he didn't get a red or a blue one!" The humor in this scene lies in the double entendre and the malapropism, as the women's misunderstanding of the situation leads to a comically innocent misinterpretation. The use of colorful language, exaggerated expressions, and the women's humorous banter all contribute to the lighthearted and fun atmosphere of this comic postcard. This charming and amusing image, featuring two middle-aged women engaged in a lively gossip session, is a perfect representation of the British sense of humor and the joy of finding meaning in the most unexpected places. Artist: Donald McGill (attribution not confirmed) Date: 20th century Mary Evans Picture Library / Mary Evans Prints Online.
