George Clark - The Neighbors - 1945 - WWII Furlough

I love cartoon art that is a reflection of society from an earlier time. Prohibition cartoons and WWII cartoons are probably my favorites. This wonderful Clark panel, from 1/20/45, features a young man sleeping in bed, as his parents look in on him. His father states, "Sure wish I could stay home during Sonny's furlough! But no soldier's going to see me absent from a war job!" A poignant piece that clearly reflects the era in which is was created.
