Richard Oldden: Luxurious Enough

A group of four original cartoons by Richard Oldden (May 4, 1931-Feb 21, 1995) shows just how funny it can be when things go wrong. 

His handwritten caption suggests Oldden may have had some issues with spelling:
"Oh, it's lux[u]rious enough . . . but we have this problem with fl[ie]s . . . "        William Tell                   


He gives us new takes on the stories of William Tell and of the Little Dutch Boy. His raunchy desert island cartoon can be said to cover new ground as well.
