Five early cartoons by Lee Lorenz were sold on eBay in the summer of 2015. Subjects include some harem business, a slip-up on waterskis, a jealous husband, the Good Humor man, and a speed trap surprise. They appear to be roughs but don't have to be, and they may or may not have gone on to publication somewhere back in the day.
