I, too, noticed that cartoon in our local city paper, and cut it out,
and scanned it and emailed it to several friends.

Another one I saved a couple years ago showed an organ grinder and his
monkey working the street corner.  Someone tips him off that the Animal
Rights people are coming.  So, to keep them happy, they switch roles --
the monkey gets to crank, and the man is shaking the tin cup!

I, too, hope that someone has a bigger "collection" of these than mine.
Due to copyrights, we'd have to share them privately via email, not on
the MMD site.
