EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: "The Aggravations of Shopping: A Sizeable Dilemma" In this charming and humorous 20th-century comic postcard, a plump woman stands at the counter of a department store, looking exasperated as she holds up two dresses, one labeled "Size 39" and the other "Size 34." The assistant, with a look of feigned sympathy, reassures her, "Don't worry, Madam, this one will wash smaller!" The woman, with a scowl on her face and her hands on her hips, rolls her eyes and shakes her head, expressing her frustration with the inconsistency of dress sizes. Her youthful, pretty appearance adds a touch of irony to her situation, as she looks anything but disappointed or dissatisfied with her figure. This comical postcard, created by renowned British comic artist Donald McGill, pokes fun at the common annoyance of shopping for clothes that don't fit quite right. The woman's exaggerated reaction and the assistant's amused response capture the essence of the shopping experience and the lighthearted way in which we often deal with the small aggravations of everyday life. The postcard's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the scene to life, transporting us back to a time when a simple comic strip could bring a smile to our faces and provide a moment of levity in our day. This delightful piece of art is a testament to the enduring power of humor and the universal relatability of the shopping experience.
