# "Sandy MacGregor Buys His Spring Business Outfit" This four-panel cartoon by Gassner depicts a man named Sandy MacGregor shopping for spring clothing. The humor appears to derive from the contrast between his expectations and reality at various establishments. In panels 1-2, he visits what seems to be a tailor or formal clothier, where he interacts with salesmen. Panels 3-4 show him at home, seemingly disappointed or struggling with his purchases—possibly ill-fitting garments or poor quality goods. The satire likely mocks either the clothing industry's poor service to working-class customers, or MacGregor's own misguided shopping choices. The "spring business outfit" suggests he's attempting to dress professionally for the season, only to encounter problems. Without more contextual information about Sandy MacGregor (possibly a recurring character), the specific target of ridicule remains somewhat unclear.
