A little animated history

During a recent home office purge, I rediscovered a treasure trove from my past.

In my younger years, I always wanted to grow up and be a cartoonist.  My heroes were folks like Don Martin at MAD Magazine:

and my ultimate hero, George Booth from the New Yorker Magazine.

Obviously, I never reached the heights of success that these gentlemen did, but it was a great way for me to amuse my co-workers and friends - and to relieve the tension and anger that comes from working in the corporate world.

In the process of cleaning up the office, I found folders of my old work - most from more than 20 years ago.

At first, I recoiled at the unpolished nature of the drawings - and some that were SO specific to my workplace and colleagues at the time, that no one else would ever appreciate them.

However, I have decided to post a few of the more accessible ones - just to relive old times.  I hope you'll enjoy them - but if not, don't tell me.  Ha.

I may share more occasionally - just for the few old friends who come to this blog, as well as for any of my newer friends who might find them amusing.
