EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: "A Pinch of Wash and a Dash of Humor" - This delightful 20th-century comic postcard brings a smile to our faces with its playful wordplay and charming depiction of everyday life. The scene features a group of plump and pretty young women, each engaged in the mundane yet essential chore of washing and hanging out their clothes. But what sets this postcard apart is the clever use of language and visual puns. The women, dressed in their frilly best, are seen hanging their "drawers" (underwear) on the washing line, while a "fat" aerial draws power from a nearby power line. The "waves" of the washing are being "drawn" by a "peg" who seems to be having a great time, while another woman asks, "What's the answer to the question a woman asked her husband when she saw him holding a plunger?" The answer, of course, is "I'm just drawing the bath, dear!" This postcard, reminiscent of the iconic Donald McGill postcards, is a testament to the British sense of humor and the ability to find amusement in the most ordinary situations. The women, despite their busy schedule, are enjoying the moment and the camaraderie, adding to the light-hearted and fun atmosphere of the scene. The use of color and detail in the illustration further enhances the overall charm and appeal of this timeless postcard.
