EDITORS COMMENTS
A Night to Forget at the Grand Hotel" In this delightful 20th-century comic postcard, a tall, attractive, and glamorously dressed woman stands in the middle of a hotel manager's office, pointing an accusing finger at a rather flustered-looking man. The manager, with a look of disbelief on his face, leans forward in his chair, listening intently to the woman's complaint. The woman, with a determined expression, wears a short, skimpy top and shorts, her arms crossed as she delivers her grievance. The manager, a middle-aged man with a neat mustache, looks up from the papers on his desk, his brow furrowed in concern. The scene takes place in a dimly lit office, with a large, ornate clock on the wall behind the manager, hinting at the late hour. The caption above the image reads, "A Night to Forget at the Grand Hotel," adding to the humorous and lighthearted tone of the postcard. The woman's complaint, though not revealed in the image, is no doubt causing quite a stir in the manager's normally quiet office. The scene is reminiscent of classic British comedy, with its use of exaggerated expressions and body language, and the contrast between the glamorous woman and the frazzled manager is sure to bring a smile to the viewer's face." This comic postcard, with its charming and humorous depiction of a woman's complaint to a hotel manager, is a fun and lighthearted addition to any collection. The use of exaggerated expressions and body language, as well as the classic British setting, adds to the overall appeal of this delightful piece. Whether displayed in a home or office, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to anyone who sees it. Artist: Donald McGill (not the company) Source: Mary Evans Prints Online Date: 20th century.
