MORT DRUCKER : MAD magazine's Best Caricature Artist!

Remembering MAD artist Mort Drucker on his birthdate: March 22, 1929! He's always been my all-time favorite artist. Mort's cartoons were the feature I always looked forward to whenever I got the latest issue of MAD. When he left the magazine, I stopped reading it but never forgot his artwork and I still keep revisiting him often!

The Mr. Magoo Cameos

 I love the cartoon character of Mister Magoo. I remember watching his antics at the movie theater and later on television. He's not the usual cartoon type of character. For one thing, he's a human. Not many human beings were featured as stars in those old classic animation shorts so it was kind of a departure.

WIKIPEDIA describes him like this: "Mr. Magoo is an elderly, wealthy, short-statured retiree who gets into a series of comical situations as a result of his extreme near-sightedness, compounded by his stubborn refusal to admit the problem".

Mr. Magoo was also featured in a series of comic books throughout the 50s and 60s,

and for a while, was even published as a syndicated comic strip. The strips were then compiled into a paperback which has been the only source I have relied upon to read them. 

Quincy Magoo was also prominently displayed in several General Electric ads:

So for me, it was only natural to include him as a cameo figure in several of my newspaper cartoons:

Even his nephew Waldo made an appearance!

Oh, Magoo! You've done it again!

Statler and Waldorf Advice for the Holidays

The Holiday Season is upon us now, so I think it is essential to post this piece of sound advice: 

The Celebrity Grim Reaper

Many celebrities have died during the last few months of 2022 which leads me to believe there is a special Grim Reaper whose specialty is doing away with well known names and who works overtime as the year comes to a close.
