Cartoon themes: Just Married

I've taken the remainder of my gag cartoons (still several years' worth with more to come) and put them into several categories. First up is the “Just Married” sign.

Man, October 1971

Jem, August 1958

It's always bothered me when cartoons have the book title on the back cover, but I've found myself it's often necessary for staging.

High, November 1958

Bob Barnes
Hello Buddies, Winter 1950

Sometimes they'd use the same theme like this at least twice in one magazine

Al Ross

Reamer Keller

Frank Beaven

I've decided that this is the best gag cartoon ever made. I have an essay half-written explaining why. I pitched it to Comics Journal six months ago and need to get off my ass and finish it.
