Arnold Roth (au); John Updike (in). One of America’s most famous cartoonists, Arnold Roth kicked off his cartooning career as a contributor to such infamous magazines as Mad, Humbug, Trump, & Punch. His work also appears in Esquire, Sports Illustrated, Time, & many other widely circulated publications. This book contains the complete run of Roth’s hilarious newspaper strip, “Poor Arnold’s Almanac,” which ran every Sunday from May 1959 to May 1961 -- all 104, plus 5 previously unpublished bonus strips. The subject of each strip -- baseball, dogs, commuting, ice cream, telephones, smoking, you name it -- is poked, prodded, ridiculed, analyzed, explored, & dissected in Roth’s good-natured, hilarious, trenchant, witty, & instantly recognizable style.
