Evergreen 80

This is the last of the issues of Evergreen I acquired at a flea market a couple months ago. This one's the 80th issue from July 1970.

This cartoon by B.Kliban may be good or bad depending on how you look at it.
Another chapter of Frank Fleet done pseudonymously by Michael O'Donoghue and Frank Springer. This was around the same time O'Donoghue was one of the head writers for National Lampoon.

Someone told me this Kliban cartoon appeared on a postcard.
If this era could be summed up in one image, it would be this ad.

Evergreen Review 77

This is the 77th issue of Evergreen Review I got a stack of at the flea market. Not the whole issue, just the cartoons and humor pieces. Other issues I've posted can be seen here and here. This one's from April 1970.

This predates the synergy that's in most magazines today. Not only does the magazine plug the movie Mister Freedom but also has a fumetti adaptation, interviews the director, and uses the still on the cover in its subscription ads.
Early gag cartoon by B. Kliban.
Some scenes from Mister Freedom...
...and another cartoon by Kliban
“Dick Strong” and “Lance Sterling” are actually Michael O'Donoghue and Frank Springer, who later did countless comic book parodies for National Lampoon and before this a serialized strip called Phoebe Zeit-Geist that was collected.

Sorry for not posting the previous installments, which I have no access to, but it's not is if they're needed to tell what's going on.

Evergreen 64

I briefly went into the Evergreen Review about a week ago and my acquisition thereof, so here are more cartoons from the March 1969 issue.

This one was done by someone named “Jon”.
They always gave a few pages to Michael O'Donoghue in each issue. Here's a fumetti he did with art direction by Cloud Studio, the original art directors for National Lampoon before they decided to go with someone else.
The DeCarlo who did this was not Dan DeCarlo as I previously thought, but a gag cartoonist for many magazines.
Two from B.Kliban before solely doing cartoons in the style he's known for.

The poem Babyhip by Martin Steingesser is not do be confused with the book of the same name.
