This wonderful political cartoon, from the San Francisco Chronicle, is titled "A Half Dozen Ways to Make a Million". Sweiger presents all kinds of ways to make that million, from a "small vest pocket poison oak identifier", to a combination alarm clock and electric percolator. Little did Sweigert know that the latter invention is pretty much in use today!

This early piece really shows Fred G. Cooper's influence on Sweigert, from the wonderful lettering, to the animated and stylized drawing.
