Title: "A Bit Pregnant with Laughter" - Two Middle-Aged Women in a Jolly Pub, Full of Double Entendres and British Humor (20th Century) In this delightful and humorous comic postcard, two middle-aged women are seen sitting in a cozy, dimly-lit pub, each with a glass of ale in hand and a mischievous grin on their faces. The woman on the left, with a buttoned coat and a shopping basket at her feet, leans in close to her friend, pointing at something on the table. The woman on the right, with a knowing smile, looks at her companion, her eyes twinkling with amusement. The title of the postcard, "A Bit Pregnant with Laughter," adds an extra layer of meaning to the scene. The double entendre plays on the phrase "a bit pregnant," which can mean both expecting a baby and being full of mischief or humor. The women's jolly demeanor and the pub's friendly atmosphere further emphasize the lighthearted and fun nature of the image. This charming postcard is a perfect example of British humor, reminiscent of the works of famous comic postcard artists such as Donald McGill. The use of double entendres and innuendo, combined with the women's friendly and jovial expressions, make this postcard a delightful and amusing addition to any collection. Whether displayed in a frame or sent as a greeting card, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face and add a touch of whimsy to their day.
