Cartoon Humor #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Dog Catches Newspaper" is a delightfully absurd slice of early 1940s cartoon humor from Pines, written, drawn, and inked by Courtney Dunkel. In a single, perfectly timed panel, a man on a train performs an unexpectedly literal act of chivalry—hoisting a short woman into the air so she can reach a hand grip, turning a mundane commute into a moment of whimsical physical comedy. The cover by Courtney Dunkel captures the same playful energy, making this 25-cent comic a charming snapshot of mid-century humor.
In a single page of pure, deadpan humor from 1949, a man on a train spots a short woman struggling to reach the overhead hand grip. Rather than offering his seat, he simply lifts her up by the waist, suspending her midair like a misplaced mannequin, all while the train rattles on.
