1. Title: "From a Jolly Old Cock: A Seaside Laugh from the 20th Century" 2.. Step back in time with this charming comic postcard from the 20th century, featuring a jolly old cockerel basking in the sun by the seashore. This humorous image, brimming with double entendres and British wit, is sure to bring a smile to your face. The jolly old cock, with a twinkle in his eye and a rooster comb standing tall, seems to be enjoying a well-deserved break from his usual poultry duties. The seaside setting adds an extra layer of fun, as the cock's position and the title "From a Jolly Old Cock" suggest a hidden meaning that is both amusing and playful. This comic postcard is a delightful reminder of the lighter side of life during the 20th century. The humanized representation of a cockerel, with its jovial expression and casual attire, adds to the double meaning and the overall fun and lightheartedness of the image. The use of the seaside backdrop, complete with a sandy beach, a sailboat, and a quaint pier, adds to the nostalgic feel of the postcard. This charming image is a testament to the power of humor and the enduring appeal of a good old-fashioned joke. Whether you're a collector of vintage postcards, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates a good laugh, this From a Jolly Old Cock postcard is a must-have addition to your collection. So come, take a journey back in time and let the laughter wash over you!
