Animal Gags à la the New Yorker
- I love getting these out of the blue emails from Bill Peckmann, followed by a flurry of great cartoon scans.
Here’s the latest and his comments prior to sending:
- I just came across this 1979 book of mine, a collection of animal gags, all collected from past New Yorker cartoons, it has a bunch of our favorite cartoonists in it, Rowland B. (only 1 gag of his, but it’s a good one not seen before), 4 Peter Arno’s, 3 Whitney Darrow Jr.’s, 6 Charles Addams’, and of course the author/editors Gahan Wilson and George Booth, plus many more, all rib ticklers
With not one, but two legendary magazine gag cartoonists editing this 1979 collection of animal gags, what else can I say but enjoy!
Here’s a small portion of their pick of the litter.
