Making a Monkey of Him, Henry
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a classic and humorous cartoon by the talented American artist, Carl Anderson, created in 1936. This charming print captures the essence of playful mischief and the innocence of childhood. In the image, a young boy named Henry is seen attempting to make a monkey out of an unsuspecting workman. Henry, with a mischievous grin on his face, holds a stick and wears a Kensitas cigarette card, while the workman, dressed in overalls and a hard hat, is perched precariously on a ladder, reaching for a high-hanging object. Henry has attached a sign to the workman's back that reads "Monkey," intending to make him look foolish. The 1930s setting is evident in the workman's attire and the use of a Kensitas cigarette card, which was a popular collectible during that era. The black-and-white medium further adds to the timeless appeal of this classic cartoon. Anderson's artistic skill is evident in the intricate details of the illustration, from the textures of the workman's overalls to the subtle expressions on the faces of Henry and the workman. The cartoon's humor lies in the unexpected situation and the playful banter between the two characters. "Making a Monkey of Him, Henry" is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, showcasing the simple joys of childhood and the enduring power of humor to bring a smile to our faces. This print is a must-have for anyone who appreciates the art of classic cartoons and the nostalgia of the 1930s.
