From the Dick Buchanan Files: Holiday and Winter Cartoons 1948 - 1960

Here's a selection of vintage gag cartoons from Dick Buchanan's collection of 20th century magazine cartoons. What with Thanksgiving over for the year, it's time to think about the holidays and the cold and the funny gags, of course.

Thanks, Dick!

HOLIDAY/WINTER CARTOONS

1948 -1960

What with this global warming situation the planet got itself in, it’s hard telling how many winters we have left. That means gag cartoons about winter are still another vanishing species doomed for the Gag Hall of Fame. That’s why special care was taken to include in this selection some vintage cartoons about winter . . . and snow . . . and the only holiday celebrated in the American weeklies of the 1940’s and 1950’s.
