Just too saucy!

Saucy postcards featuring heaving bosoms, henpecked husbands, miserable wives and captions loaded with double entendres were as much part of the fun as candy floss and donkey rides.
But more than 50 years ago, prudish officials deemed these bawdy cartoons unfit for public consumption and had them banned.
Now a museum is putting on show all 21 of the comic cards by prolific artist Donald McGill that the censors suppressed.
