From the Dick Buchanan Files: Gag Cartoons 1948 - 1970

Dick Buchanan has a huge collection of vintage gag cartoons from the 20th century that he has shared with us over the years. You've seen so many of them here: wordless gag cartoons, cops and robbers gag cartoons, cartoons from the old Life and Judge magazines and much more.

Today, he shares some unclassified ones that have yet to be neatly filed away in his NYC apartment. Thanks and take it away, Dick:





GAG CARTOONS
(1948 – 1970)


Each and every week more gag cartoons are clipped in filed in the Cartoon Clip File, located somewhere in New York’s Greenwich Village. Some of these cartoons resonate right away. So, rather than filing them, which is a loathsome chore best postponed anyway, they are put aside. That simply means they are tossed on in a smaller pile of clippings on our cluttered desk. Today we take a few of these cartoons to share . . . and file later.
