The cartoon blog of Andertoons cartoonist Mark Anderson. He discusses his cartoons, cartooning, comics and, oddly enough, LEGO.
I love bad movies. Not “I never really connected with the main character” bad, but “I can see the wires on the paper plate UFO” bad. (Check out the pics of my office. I, like the 40 year old virgin, actually have a framed “MST3K:The Movie” poster on my wall.)

I think the Gahan Wilson is my favorite, but the Ziegler is a close second.
It looks like this book was purchased at some sort of signing on 5/1/76 by Barbara someone.
Anyway, it was already one of my favorite books of/on gag cartoons, and this particular copy now has a special place on my new shelves.
