I’m a huge fan of men’s magazine cartoonist Bill Wenzel. I love his stylized sketching style and I think his girls faces are stunning. The one liners are really cute! The bellow cartoons are from the 1960’s – 1970’s
Punch line reads: "Remember those wild ties you were going to throw away?"

Amazing live recording of the Dave Brubeck quartet circa 1966. This is the cool scene at it’s best. Paul Desmond kills it on alto sax and Joe Morello looks super hip in his sunglasses.

Charles Adams with his wife Barbara (1955)
Charles Addams was an American cartoonist (1912 – 1988). His work was featured in the New Yorker. I’m a big fan of his work including The Addams Family, which is being turned into a Broadway musical.
