Magazine Cartoon Quiz

Ready for a little magazine cartoon quiz? Did you grow up during one of the golden ages of magazine cartoons? Do you love magazine gag cartoons of the type that used to appear in almost every magazine published in the US in previous decades; not only the New Yorker, but Look, Saturday Review, Saturday Evening Post, National Enquirer, Parade, This Week, Highlights, Boys Life and everything in between?? When you were a kid, did you wait by the mailbox when you knew your favorite magazine was soon to arrive? When your mom sent you to the drugstore for a bottle of aspirin, did you have trouble prying yourself away from the magazine rack? If this sounds like you, you might do very well on this little cartoon quiz.

Ever Want To Be A Cartoonist?

As A Kid? As An Adult?

Loading poll. Please Wait...

If You Enjoyed Perusing Look, True, This Week, Argosy,

...Parade, National Enquirer and the Saturday Evening Post...

...you should do well in this cartoon quiz. I'm not sure a thinking cap is really appropriate, here. Maybe a beanie...with a propeller on top would help. There are a few toughies, but I'd say that at least half are pretty easy gets for anyone with an interest in gag cartoons of years past. If you get 90%, you're probably a cartoonist, yourself!

Please be advised that new questions will not appear until current questions have been answered. There are 10 questions in this magazine cartoon trivia quiz.

Magazine Cartoons Are Harder To Find

Food Places To Look At Amazon

Magazine are few and far between, today. Fewer magazines are using them. A few that continue to use gag cartoons are New Yorker, Highlights and Boys Life, all of which you can subscribe to at Amazon.com.
