The Cartoon Bank

Came across a fun website today. It's called The Cartoon Bank and it's chocked full of New Yorker magazine cartoons, cover prints and gifts. Those one-panel funnies almost always make me laugh and it was especially fun looking back at the panels they published decades' prior. In the 1920's, for example, topics included such crises as confusing broccoli with spinach, Ivory soap NOT floating, and a conversation between trapeze artists - one falling and the other one saying, "Oop-sorry."

In the 70's, the cartoons focused more on lawyers, statistics (Man watching tv; newscaster saying, "Meaningless statistics are up one-point-five percent this month over last month."), and music on hold (Secretary with telephone in one hand and trumpet in the other asking caller “Would you like to hear some music while you hold?”).

Fun stuff! Worth a look.
