A misunderstanding by George Ranstead
Two soldiers discuss a new watch while traveling on a bus or tram, but accidentally offend a ruddy lady sitting opposite. Humorous drawing on a postcard by George Ranstead, an amateur artist of the Great War who served in the Army Pay Corps. Ranstead was one of many soldiers of WWI who took up drawing as a hobby. His subjects range from wartime humour to pictures of pretty girls and are clearly influenced by images in the illustrated magazines of the period
