GAG CARTOON CLICHÉS
1948 – 1965
Thanks to the miracle of fiction I spend most of my time in the past. That’s a good thing. From what I understand the present is fraught with eminent peril.
This recent foray into the comic depths of the 20th Century has been in search of gag cartoon clichés. To my surprise, I found the most popular gag cartoon cliché during the mid-century was clearly the Boss and Secretary. The ever-popular “Desert Island” gags were second.
While some clichés from the past remain in use today—cavemen, for instance, have appeared regularly over the years up to the present. Others, thankfully, are relics of the past. They will not be missed.
This collection, the 5th installment of gag cartoon clichés, concludes the current series.
