Another New Year's Eve with Peter Arno

In the 1950's, television was the new technology and the source of many a New Yorker gag. Here's a full-page cartoon from that era by the one and only Peter Arno depicting a little New Year's revelry. Back in the day, I imagine that Arno would be the ideal cartoonist to hang out with on New Year's Eve.

Peter Arno, "Some lunatic wants to know what program we're watching."
The New Yorker, December 28, 1957, page 27
