Captain Billy's Whiz Bang #59 — page 64: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page contains four separate humorous anecdotes rather than political cartoons: 1. **"The Shades of Night Are Falling Fast"** — A suggestive joke about an artist's model undressing, playing on the poem's title. 2. **"Lumbago" anecdote** — A brief joke about a friend helping someone drink medicine for back pain. 3. **"Going the Limit"** — A flirtatious reference to sitting close to someone (Dempsey, likely boxer Jack Dempsey) on a Ferris wheel. 4. **"A Total Eclipse"** — A workplace humor piece about a fastidious proofreader who objects to ambiguous phrasing ("west end of a boy"), responding with a geographical joke about sunsets. These reflect *Whiz Bang*'s focus on risqué humor, wordplay, and workplace comedy typical of 1920s-era men's magazines.
