EDITORS COMMENTS
In this satirical chromolitho print, we see a man dressed in a luxurious dressing gown, sitting with an expression of shock and disbelief on his face. He is engrossed in reading a lengthy bill from his plumber, which seems to have caught him completely off guard. The artist, Tom Browne, skillfully captures the humorous and amusing moment as the customer realizes just how expensive plumbing services can be. The caricatured figure of the man represents every unsuspecting customer who has ever been hit with an unexpectedly high bill for home repairs. Browne's scathing satire highlights the often exorbitant charges associated with tradesmen's services. This early 20th-century postcard serves as both entertainment and social commentary on the relationship between customers and service providers. It reminds us that even mundane tasks like fixing pipes can come at a hefty cost. The vibrant colors used in this chromolitho add to its visual appeal while emphasizing the absurdity of the situation depicted. The attention to detail in Browne's drawing brings out each comical element, from the man's shocked expression to his extravagant attire. Overall, this print offers a lighthearted glimpse into everyday life during that era while poking fun at our universal experiences dealing with unexpected bills.
