Found this in a scrapbook of old Ripley’s Believe it or not articles and was taken aback that with a few tweaks this same cartoon could run today and be pretty accurate



Crazy, innit?

That’s insane. Wagging the same dog’s tail for 100 years.

Same tail wagging the dog I should say.

The difference is that back then, the media was the one reporting this bullshite.

Now they support it.

Is it just me or does that hat look like a 6 and the sword look like a 9. Didn't know they did the 69 jokes in 1947
