The Farmhand's Delight
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A 20th Century Comic Postcard This charming and humorous comic postcard, titled "The Farmhand's Delight," captures the essence of a playful moment in rural life during the 20th century. The scene depicts a man, dressed in work clothes and wearing a straw hat, sitting on a bale of hay with a contented smile on his face. His girlfriend, a pretty woman with a floral dress and a sunhat, leans over him, feeding a cow a lick of ice cream from a cone. The man, seemingly amused, looks up at her with a twinkle in his eye. In the background, another woman, possibly a friend, picks flowers while smoking a cigarette. The comic touch is added with the expression on the cow's face, which appears to be one of pure delight as it licks the ice cream. The man's expression and body language suggest that he is enjoying the moment just as much as the cow. The women in the background add to the scene's humor, with the one smoking a cigarette and the other seemingly oblivious to the goings-on. This postcard, produced in Britain during the 20th century, is a delightful representation of a simpler time. It captures the humor and lightheartedness of rural life, with its quirky characters and unexpected moments. The use of comic elements, such as the cow's expression and the women's activities, adds to the overall fun and playful nature of the scene. This postcard is a great reminder of the joy and amusement that can be found in the most unexpected places, even on a farm with a cow!
