It's January 1931, but you can be forgiven if you don't recognize that the Great Depression is upon us from this Judge cartoon by Otto Soglow. At least we know the importance during Prohibition of keeping dry.
Note: My thanks to Dick Buchanan for providing Attempted Bloggery with access to this scan from the world-renowned Dick Buchanan Cartoon Clip Files. Dick contributes regularly to Mike Lynch Cartoons, most recently a post entitled, "Dick Buchanan's Favorite Gag Cartoons 1946 - 1964." Find out what people were laughing at during the years of the baby boom.
Otto Soglow was a prolific cartoonist with a special flair for the wordless gag. Readers are encouraged to contribute scans or photos of original art, rare published cartoons, and other Sogloviana to this blog. Did I just make up a word?
