Hopefully, you are winding
down operations for the week and getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving with a
long weekend. This trio of electronics-themed comics from a 1946 issue of
Radio-Craft magazine will help get you in a jovial spirit,
regardless of whether or not you're getting the long weekend. I've mentioned
many times that these comics make a good source of levity for adding to your
presentations. As you might have guessed if you are familiar with Frank Beaven,
he drew the top and bottom comics. He also drew the middle one. Two of these
comics are part of his "Radio Term Illustrated" series, where magazine readers
sent him suggestions for a theme that could serve, along with his drawing, as a
sort of double entendre.
Enjoy.
