E. Simms Campbell takes a break from his usual cartoons of attractive women and instead tries to get inside the mind of a dog who has been left alone in the house. This dog's-eye view makes for a nice enough drawing, but one wishes the resulting gag were a bit less obvious.
On the other side of the page, the magazine features the work of Jean-Gabriel Domergue, whose favorite subject is very much the same as Esquire's favorite subject.
