America’s Cup: Cartoons Magazine Centennial 1913
When billionaires aren’t engaged in the sport of placing bets on how far an injured worker without health care can hop before he falls, they get in boats. (See our cartoons regarding the Titanic!)
It’s appropriate that this year’s America’s Cup was held in San Francisco, on the centennial losing effort of a wet rich guy who really knew how to “tea bag” it. Above and below, from Cartoons Magazine, are various cartoonists’ take on him.
Click on the above & below pictures, to view the cartoons in detail, and read the text.
