Popular Jokes #28

This May 1968 issue of Popular Jokes: Cartoon Entertainment from Marvel promises "over 150 fresh and breezy laughs," and the cover delivers a colorful sampler of what's inside — four separate cartoon panels featuring glamorous women, a race car at the finish line, a bemused police officer with a tape measure, a suited gentleman surrounded by fashionable ladies, and even a chess-playing lion facing off against a tiny opponent. At just 35 cents, it's a cheerful snapshot of the era's gag-cartoon humor, served up in bright, breezy illustration style that sets the playful tone for every page that follows.
