1 | * [[http://www.newyorker.com/cartoons/cartoons-90th-anniversary-1965-1975-03 A cartoon]] George Booth did for the magazine depicts a man on the porch of a beach-house hunched over a typewriter, while a woman stands next to him with a sandwich on a plate.. |
2 | -->"I've got an idea for a story: Gus and Ethel live on Long Island, on the North Shore. He works sixteen hours a day writing fiction. Ethel never goes out, never does anything except fix Gus sandwiches, and in the end she becomes a nympho-lesbo-killer-whore. Here's your sandwich." |
3 | * [[http://www.newyorker.com/cartoons/cartoons-90th-anniversary-1925-1935-13 Another classic]], by Carl Rose and Creator/EBWhite, shows a mother and her young child eating dinner: |
4 | -->"It's broccoli, dear."\ |
5 | "I say it's spinach, and I say the hell with it." |
6 | * Creator/CharlesAddams had many of these. One classic example would be the cartoon of the Addams Family preparing to pour boiling oil from the roof of their house onto a group of ChristmasCarolers at the front door (a gag re-used for the opening of the [[Film/TheAddamsFamily 1991 Addams Family film]]). |
7 | * The Nov 17, 2003 cover deserves special mention for being done by none other than Gary Larson of ''ComicStrip/TheFarSide'' fame. Only he could depict cowboys drawing caricatures of each other as a ShowdownAtHighNoon. |
