This is not the finished drawing of the cartoon as it appeared in print. It is an earlier drawing from my files. I don’t have a copy of the final drawing, nor do I have a tearsheet of the printed cartoon. But I do know that King Features Syndicate had scheduled it to be published as a “Laff-A-Day” panel on November 15, 1977.
This is another cartoon that I completely lost track of until I found it in a search through old Wall Street Journals at the library. Good to see it again, after all these years.
I had re-drawn the gag, though, and with a slightly different caption, it appeared in Selling Power magazine in 1991.
Well, back in 1978, that would have been a BIG promotion.
