The Persistent Bother of Curiosity
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Classic Comic Postcard from the 20th Century This delightful comic postcard, dated back to the 20th century, captures a lighthearted moment between a young woman and a rather perplexed Scotsman. The image, brought to us by the renowned British humorist, Donald McGill, is a testament to the playful and whimsical spirit of the era. The scene unfolds as a young woman, dressed in her Sunday best, approaches a Scotsman, who is deep in thought while wearing a traditional Scottish kilt and shortsighted glasses. With a quizzical expression, she leans in and asks, "What's in the handbag, Mac?" The Scotsman, taken aback by the sudden inquiry, looks up in annoyance, his glasses askew on his nose. The woman's inquisitive nature, symbolized by her handbag, has once again irritated the Scotsman, a common theme in McGill's humorous works. The postcard's charming illustration, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, perfectly encapsulates the essence of the comic strip. McGill's unique ability to poke fun at everyday situations and stereotypes made his comic postcards a beloved pastime for generations. This particular card, with its clever wordplay and humorous depiction of a Scottish stereotype, is a prime example of his wit and talent. As we take a moment to appreciate this piece of comic history, we can't help but smile at the woman's persistence and the Scotsman's exasperation. A true testament to the power of a well-timed joke, this postcard continues to amuse and entertain, reminding us of a simpler time when a little humor could brighten even the gloomiest of days.
