Peter Arno's Side-Show for November 1936

Chances are, if you didn't catch Peter Arno's "Side-Show" cartoon feature when it first appeared in the November 1936 issue of College Humor, you didn't get a second chance. Until now, that is.
"Here's a hot one, lambie—'Dear sir: As an old friend, I feel it my duty to warn
you to keep an eye on your new chauffeur.'"

Peter Arno
College Humor, November 1936, p. 18

"Now?"
"She keeps asking for you! She's delirious."

The original College Humor artwork for that third cartoon appeared on a contact sheet prepared by the Nicholls Gallery back in 1985.

Note:  I'd like to hear from the current owners of Peter Arno's original art for College Humor. Now? Yes, now.
