Back in 2013 a group of twelve ink drawings by cartoonist
Ed Arno were sold on eBay for an undisclosed sum, likely about $10 each. Many of them have printer's marks indicating publication. A few captions are missing, and a few are unreadable in these photos. Some of the drawings appear to be annotated with dates and the time period would seem to be the Cold War. These could very well date from the 1960's.
