Jaguar Bond: Man from O.R.G.Y. (NSFW)

These one-panel gags are all from Caper volume 3, number 7, some time in 1963. Photobucket Photobucket Joseph Farris' archives don't credit his contributions to Caper but it's not as if they're being covered up since other skin magazines are mentioned. It's probably included in “miscellaneous unidentified”. Photobucket Photobucket Art Lutner Photobucket Before The Lockhorns,Bill Hoest did plenty of gag cartoons. Photobucket Most of the girlie magazines had to have a back-up comic strip to compete with Playboy's Little Annie Fanny. Jaguar's Jaguar Bond, the Man From O.R.G.I.E. (erroneously titled “O.R.G.Y.” on the cover, but readers weren't looking for consistency, or even text.) was running after the acronymed spy parody genre was winding down but their readers weren't looking for accuracy.

This comic is from the June 1969 issue of Jaguar. Photobucket I normally put images on Photobucket, but they don't allow nudity and it would be stupid to put censor bars on things.
The last page was black and white like this.
See how stupid it would look if I'd put censor bars?
This cartoon by Bruce Cochran is from that same issue of Jaguar

Ace and Bachelor

More gag cartoons from the forgotten genre of men's magazines. Sure, they're still around, but they're something completely different now. They were closer to Playboy (as it was then) for a lower-middle-class audience, but not hardcore porn. Many more text articles that had nothing to do with sex. Here are more cartoons from them. I imagine them something the archetypal henpecked husband usually voiced by Bill Thompson would read.

This one's from Ace volume 7, number 3, November 1963. Photobucket The next three are from Ace volume 7, number 6, May 1964.

Bob Schochet obviously inspired by Feiffer's Sick Sick Sick Photobucket While the more high-brow magazines only hinted at sex, the also-ran skin magazines weren't as subtle. Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Until I mention otherwise, these are from Ace volume 3, number 1, June 1959 Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket By comic artist Jay Scott Pike. Photobucket The bottom one is by Brad Anderson of Marmaduke fame. Photobucket Photobucket An attempt to do a cartoon of the “id” genre by Charles Dennis, from Adam volume 3, number 5, May 1959. Photobucket From Bachelor volume 2, number 4, June 1961. Photobucket More girlie cartoons next Thursday.

Ace

More of my posting just the cartoons from men's magazines, continued from last Thursday.

These next few are from Ace, June 1961

A lot of these cartoons are by “Ah Sin”. I'm not sure if it's a pen name or short for something or if his name was 'A.H.' or what. Could be a pseudonym. There was a play called Ah Sin and there are many Chinese restaurants with that name but that's all I have. Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket One by Charles Rodrigues Photobucket Ace volume 4 #5, February 1961 Photobucket Yes, this is Archie artist Dan DeCarlo Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket More next Thursday.

Men's magazines: just the cartoons

I've been posting a lot of cartoons from Esquire, now here are some of the lesser-known magazines.

Sorry about these being more blurry than usual. My regular storage site doesn't allow nudity. When you open the images, right click on them and save them on your own computer so you can see them at a bigger size.

These are all from 21 #4, some time in the 50s.
