My friend Dick Buchanan has pulled some of his all-time favorite
magazine gag cartoons for you today. What can I say? He has very good
taste. These are all from the post war "golden age" of single panel
cartoons. As Dick notes, by the 1960s, a lot of magazines went out of
business or cut back in general on their art.
Oh, take a moment to peek at some of his other terrific contributions by
clicking a link below. There are a lot of gag cartoons to see!
Thanks and take it away, Dick ....
