I have several Cupples and Leon books in my collection, as I love the comic strip inking styles of the 1910s-1930s. But, I don't care all that much about having access to this one, as it only has a few pages with that style of cartoons. The rest of the book is filled with corny text jokes (which were probably already 50 years old when this book was published), and simple stick figure cartoons with accompanying text jokes, which are also unfunny. However, I beg to differ with Crash's statement that having read only this book by Dorgan, one couldn't tell that he was a talented artist and cartoonist. Just looking at the inking on his dapper Dogs tells me otherwise. I'm rather surprised that that esteemed publisher took on this book, but I'm guessing that they had already published a few of his other books, filled with standard cartoon illustrations.
