A follow-up to my 12/29/17 posting “George Booth at 90: elephants and holidays”: five of my favorite Booth cartoons.

(#1) A Dog In Bar meme cartoon

(#2) Married life, and the writer’s life

(#3) One of many Booth community-group cartoons, with cat

(#4) A New Year’s cover from 1981, with tons of cats

(#5) The writer’s life, with tons of dogs

#3-5 are set in a special Boothian universe of pet-filled domestic squalor, with precarious light fixtures.
