Here’s an example I scanned of Mr. Jack<\/em> from 1905 by Jimmy Swinnerton. Swinnerton was a popular and extremely prolific cartoonist, a contemporary and good friend of George Herriman (who shared Herriman’s passion for the southwestern United States, as seen in his Canyon Kiddies<\/em> strips and his paintings). The hilarious Mr. Jack is the cutest little philanderer you ever saw. Yet another example of what was once considered amusing family fare that is contextually shocking to modern sensibilities. I’m happy to report that I’ll have a lot of Swinnerton to share with you in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
