Cartoon Laffs

A single-issue humor comic from Gold Medal Books in 1952, Cartoon Laffs is a showcase for the wry, single-panel cartoons of Eldon Dedini, who wrote and drew the entire book. Known for his work in magazines like The New Yorker and Playboy, Dedini fills this one-shot with his signature blend of sophisticated gags and playful absurdity. Though it only ran for one issue, it stands as a compact, charming example of mid-century cartooning from a master of the form.
