No, my apologies. I should have realised. Mr Gumbum will no doubt tell me I'm an idiot, and I can't disagree with him!

1947: Post War Housing shortage

Many shortages were experienced after the war ended. Bombing had reduced the number of houses available. New families meant a bigger demand. Here Anton illustrates this problem with typical exaggeration. Small feet again but the house occupier’s heels are not as extreme as the hostess in yesterday’s picture.

1949: Aero dynamics

Hardly likely to happen but the picture does possess some innocent charm. The garment industry knows how to prevent this ever happening.

1956: Routine

He is a hospital and some repairs are taking place ‘underneath’. The patient is obviously wondering whether it is the bed or himself that is being repaired.

Knitted swimwear? Good grief - that must have been itchy and uncomfortable - not to mention unpredictable when wet!
