NGS Cartoons

Hello Everyone,

I am a little late for the discussions that Jean, Scott and Kathy had regarding a collection of cartoons that occurred in magazines, newspaper etc.  I received some of these cartoons from Roger Nathan quite awhile ago in addition to the ones that I collected over the years.  I just ran across these and saw the discussions from 2009 and thought I would attach what I have.  I attached a few below, but was limited to three only.  The ones embedded in the text would only allow me to place them above.

I hope you can read them all!

Jeff

Jeff,

The survey mentioned in this 1988 comic strip is the Geography Survey commissioned by the National Geographic Society and performed by Gallup.  The report was written by NGS.

Jeff,

I'm surprised that you haven't included this one from C. D. B. Bryan's "100 Years" book.  It's on page 174:

Originally from a 1932 New Yorker.

Jeff, 

Here are two more comics cited in Bryan's "100 Years" book.  I included their captions to give them a little context.

Jeff,

It's been a while.  Here is another Doonesbury comic strip that appeared in today's Baltimore Sun (10/29/19).  It is copyrighted 1993.
