I'm not sure you'd want this character as your dinner party companion, but it's probably okay to observe him from a safe distance. This spot drawing by James Thurber appeared in the New Yorker fifty-eight years ago today and remains, as we say, spot on.
Note: The New Yorker's spot drawings are truly meant as ephemera, yet some of them remain delightful decades later. You can see just a few classics here.
