Title: "The Unlucky Black Cat and His Mischievous Kittens" - Circa 1918 This delightful comic postcard, dated circa 1918, features a humorous scene of a black cat looking rather irritated as he is surrounded by a playful brood of kittens. The image, published by the renowned British postcard company, Donald McGill, captures the essence of the 1910s with its charming and whimsical style. The black cat, with his expressive eyes and arched back, exudes a sense of exasperation as the kittens, with their wide grins and mischievous antics, pounce and play around him. The contrast between the serious expression of the adult cat and the innocent fun of the kittens adds to the overall humor of the scene. The postcard's caption, "Lucky Cat," adds an element of irony to the image, as the unlucky black cat appears anything but lucky with the rambunctious kittens invading his space. The use of humor and playful imagery in this postcard reflects the lighthearted and carefree spirit of the era. This charming postcard is a delightful glimpse into the past, providing a fun and humorous representation of the relationship between cats and their kittens. It is a must-have for any collector of vintage postcards or those with an appreciation for the quirks and charms of the 1910s.
