Sebastian Bach: Cartoons and Caricatures

I have long regretted that I did not take advantage of the opportunity to buy the original. I cannot help but wonder if Mr. Handelsman still has it, and how I could track him down to ask. If any of you knows, please send me an e-mail!

Another favorite comes from Is It Anyone We Know?, a collection of cartoons drawn by the late, great George Price that was published in 1940. Of course, you have to remember the 78 RPM era to fully appreciate this one!
