This rather weak joke seems to have made a popular card as I have come across three versions of it although two of them are very similar.

| This first one pictured appears to be the original drawing. It has the "Keep Saving For A Rainy Day. The war is won, your £.s.d...." rhyme on the reverse |
|
 |
| This second one also has the same "Keep Saving ..." rhyme but there are significant differences to the original. |
|
 |
| This final version does not have the rhyme and the reverse looks to be much more recent, post rationing Britain rather than pre-war. However it is very similar to the second version except that the backgrounds are different. The difference in this case may be more to do with the printing process rather than McGill redrawing the image |
