If you knows of a better ole - go to it! McGill postcard

If you knows of a better ole - go to it! A humorous seaside postcard by Donald McGill showing two rotund Peeping Toms voyeuristically peering through a crack in the door of a bathing machine. This card is of particular interest as the caption phrase utilises the famous line from the popular WW1-era (1915) cartoon image by Cpt. Bruce Bairnsfather, showing the way the phrase had become embedded in the public consciousness by the 1920s
