Cartoons I Don't Get 10

Playgirl, circa 1956

Don Orehek
Playboy Spain, March 1979
Frederic Opper
Puck, August 1911 What city is this? There's no 27th Avenue in New York, or maybe there was 116 years ago and it's been underwater since then.
Adam, May 1973
Why are people on desert islands always attractive? Their clothes are always tattered so they've obviously been there a few days. They'd probably look like crustypunks.
Harvard Lampoon, February 1919

Good Humor, circa 1964
Gregory D'Alessio
Hello Buddies, June 1952
Why would the guy be using an electrical cord instead of a piece of string or yarn?
Hello Buddies, April 1953
There's no need to even ask for a raise when you can possibly get more money suing for sexual harassment.Or maybe he just doesn't like her because her head and arms are on backwards.
Hello Buddies, circa 1951
