From the Dick Buchanan Files: Gag Cartoons From Oblivion to Here 1944 - 1970

My friend Dick Buchanan has taken a deep dive into his Olympic-sized collection of gag cartoons from the golden age of gag cartooning and surfaced with some classic gems from the past. Let me step aside and say thanks, Dick, and take it away:
