She’ll Do Me! is a spirited example of mid-century Australian humour, pairing Mark Vizzers’ cheeky prose with Emile Mercier’s iconic cartoon illustrations to satirize suburban life, social pretensions, and the quirks of postwar masculinity. Vizzers presents a series of loosely connected vignettes that chronicle the escapades of a working-class everyman navigating romance, domestic mishaps, and cultural absurdities with irreverent charm. Mercier’s drawings amplify the comedic tone, punctuating the text with exaggerated expressions and visual gags that reflect the era’s populist sensibilities. The book captures the vernacular wit and ocker ethos of 1960s Australia, making it a collectible for enthusiasts of national satire, vintage cartooning, and small-press Australiana.
