EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hearty Laugh to Start Your Day: 'Of course I remember our wedding day, there wasn't a happier man in England than - your father!' This comic postcard, titled 'Couple at the Breakfast Table,' by renowned British humorist Donald McGill, captures the lightheartedness and playful banter of a long-married couple. The image shows a middle-aged, frumpish woman sitting at the breakfast table, scowling at her husband, who is beaming with pride and self-satisfaction, holding up a newspaper with the headline, 'Your Wedding Day.' The woman, with her unkempt hair and disheveled appearance, rolls her eyes and groans, while her husband, a somewhat ugly, portly man, chuckles to himself. McGill's clever use of humor and wit pokes fun at the everyday domestic life of a married couple, reminding us that even the most mundane moments can be infused with laughter and joy. This postcard, dating back to the 20th century, is a testament to the enduring power of humor to bring a smile to our faces and brighten our day. Whether displayed in a frame or sent as a thoughtful gift, this 'Couple at the Breakfast Table' postcard is sure to bring a touch of fun and whimsy to any home.
