Well, the art isn't very sexy but the intention is still there. I mean, it's all more silly than anything else, and unlike most single panel gag cartoons of this type, the four examples presented here today are not from a dirty old men's magazine, but instead, flimsily painted upon ceramic plates. So have yourself some lunch and a titillating chuckle or two. And keep your dang elbows off the table!
They remind me of the British saucy post cards I have seen online from time to time.
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit surprised the late great Benny Hill didn't feature these images as skits on his show.
I totally love the way the see-through quality of the sloppy painting makes everybody (and their furniture) look like a ghost.
ReplyDeleteI actually think the weird printing and amateurish art add to the sleaze factor of these very tame cartoons.
