Since it's the day before Halloween, it's time to look at some old gag cartoons with gags so old they SHOULD be dead, but, like zombies, they live on. Thank you, Dick Buchanan, for fearlessly dealing with these undead bad jokes. They are moldy oldies, but we love them.

OLD JOKE CEMETERY
(1948 – 1971)
The Old Joke Cemetery is where old jokes are laid to rest. We say rest
because some of them are only resting, lying in wait until someone
calls for an encore and they spring to life. We’re not sure these will
spring to life, but they’re old favorites of ours so give them one more
chance . . .
