EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: "A Night of Heartfelt Supplication," 20th Century Comic Postcard In this delightfully humorous and quintessentially British comic postcard, a middle-aged woman, dressed in a frumpy pink nightgown with frilly lace, is shown kneeling on the bed in a fervent prayer position. Her hair is piled high in curlers, and her face is contorted in deep concentration. The room is dimly lit, with a bedside lamp casting an amber glow over the scene. The caption above the image reads, "When all else fails, a night of heartfelt supplication." The woman's expression suggests that she has reached the end of her tether and is calling upon divine intervention to help her secure the affections of a man. The man in question, represented by a small silhouette in the corner of the room, is shown snoring loudly, oblivious to his lady's desperate pleas. The scene is further enhanced by the use of rhyme and verse in the lower left-hand corner of the postcard, which reads, "Pray, dear Lord, send him swiftly, my way, Or I'll surely go plum-tired and gray." This charming and lighthearted comic postcard, reminiscent of the works of Donald McGill, is a delightful reminder of the quirks and foibles of human relationships. It is a fun and funny portrayal of the single, unmarried woman's longing for companionship and the lengths she will go to in her quest for a man. The use of humor and rhyme adds to the playful and whimsical tone of the image, making it a must-have for any collection of vintage comic postcards.
