That seems to have been a popular joke. I have several postcards like this. I actually thought one was similar enough that it may have been shot at the same time/place, but the wallpaper pattern is different. Here's the post, just in case you're interested:

I'm guessing that with people getting married young back then, it was a real shock to some of them what it actually entailed.
