In case you’re wondering, that’s the Music Shed at Tanglewood in Lenox, MA. I’m not sure yet what the next header is going to be. I have a couple of different ones ready, so maybe I should flip a coin. Or maybe not, because one of them is K3!

Guess the Cartoonist

I wonder if this cartoon was inspired by the famous photo of the Times Square kiss on V-J Day? Can you name the cartoonist?

I’m as good as anybody at recognizing the work of somebody I’m familiar with, but looking at this I see no hint whatsoever of his later style. He was a successful, well-known contemporary of Charles Schulz. In fact, for about the first ten years of ‘Peanuts’ he was more successful than Schulz.
