    Amusing 1941 Cartoon

    While sorting through some things I found this 1941 dated paper cutting of a wartime cartoon. I thought it very amusing, funny in 1941 and still funny today. Look at how the sun has been drawn to look like Churchill's face, complete with cigar, and Hitler's "wings" have caught fire by flying too close. Obviously the real joke is based on the Greek mythology of Icarus.
