EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightfully humorous 20th-century comic postcard captures the essence of a plump couple's seaside holiday adventure. The image showcases a middle-aged man and woman, both generously proportioned, sitting on a sandy bottom near the water's edge. The woman, dressed in a colorful bathing costume, playfully covers her face with a large sun hat, while her husband, wearing a striped swimming trunks, leans back on his hands with a satisfied grin. The double entendre title "sandy bottom" adds an extra layer of amusement, suggesting both the sandy beach and the couple's ample figures. This charming, lighthearted postcard is reminiscent of the classic British humor found in the works of artists like Donald McGill, who is known for his comedic seaside scenes. The couple's joyful expressions and the beautiful summer setting evoke a sense of fun and relaxation, making this a lovely addition to any collection of vintage postcards or seaside memorabilia.
