wow! these are awesome!
thanks amid/michael/paul!

Many thanks for the plug, Amid. As stated at the end of the Splog, there should be more of the same up on Friday — IMO at least as nice.

I LOVE the drawing above, but what does it mean? Is it a guy thing?

Carolita - Gag drawings done at animation studios are very ephemeral. It’s hard to know fifty years later what the situation was that prompted this drawing by Cobean. Then again, these drawings were never intended to be viewed decades later or seen by people outside of the studio.

I think if nightgowns were put on the females, it’s the kind of piece that could have ended up inside The New Yorker. Although that’s not my father on the rooftop, the “big joke” is that he had started weightligting around that time, and weighed about 140 lbs.

hi paul-
i remember you dad so well. irv was a truly funny guy and a great talent.
and how about those great passover dinners our families had together.
and those living room performances your dad and cal howard put on.
those were great times.your dad made me laugh so much.
please, i would love to hear from you paul.

Well, it works for me fine as a sort of dream sequence. I was just curious if there was something more to it that I wasn’t getting.

Hey Bob! I can’t tell you how happy I am to hear from you. I’ll write you via your site! - Paul
