Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons.... John Crowther's Cartoon Odyssey

I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies. All cartoons are available as prints or originals, framed or unframed, through my website or e-mail. For mugs, t-shirts, and other products visit my gift shop at www.zazzle.com/jcrowtherart* (be sure to include the *).

Be Careful What You Wish For

There's a chain of stores that sells women's undergarments. It's called The Wizard of Bras. I swear I'm not making it up.

Owie

Bobby Thompson died the other day. My mind flashed back to that October day in 1951 when I raced home from school and turned on the radio to catch the last moments of the Dodger-Giants pennant playoff game. Just in time to hear the play-by-play announcer excitedly describe Thompson hitting the home run off pitcher Ralph Branca that won the game and the National League pennant for the Giants. I collapsed on the kitchen floor in tears, grieving for my beloved Brooklyn Dodgers. It was one of those tumultuous, earth-shattering events when you always remember where you were.

The Way To a Man's Heart

Update: Fear not, we will get back to Harley and Bear in early September to discover what happened to them when they ventured into a dark alley in search of "easy $$$." Meanwhile, I'm enjoying the stroll down Memory Lane as I sift through 1500 cartoons in search of gems.

Win, Lose, or Draw

An obituary in today's LA Times reports the death of Dan Resin, the actor who portrayed the Ty-D-Bowl man in TV ads, sailing off in a motorboat across the blue waters of a toilet dressed as a sea captain. A lifetime of credits in film and Broadway, and this is how he's remembered.
