About This Item
Hermosa Beach, CA: Scum Publishing Company, 1967. Age toning.. Written by Thomas and illustrated by Robert, a pair of ex-military brothers, this 56 page booklet is full of humorous shoe puns and political jokes. One joke in the book depicts a pair of leather dress shoes surrounded by several pairs of cowboy boots with the caption "That's all you see in Washington (DC) these days." Another joke shows a male's dressing shoe with a cracked rubber sole on top of a woman's high heel shoe with the caption "My God, Cynthia. The rubber broke!". Yet another depicts a police man's boot facing a pair of skates with the caption "Young Lady, aren't you pretty young to be driving?" Some of the jokes are meant to be offensive as well, such as one joke depicting an older man's shoe and a younger girl's shoe with the caption "Little Girl, would you like some candy?" The drawings in this booklet are done in a cartoon style of black and white line drawings, and it is unclear if it was meant to be colored in or not by the reader. This book was intended to be a renewal gift for a magazine entitled "Horseshit, the Offensive Review" that was also written and illustrated by the Dunkers. The last few pages of the booklet feature advertisements for the magazine as well as a tear out subscription form. Yellow wrappers. Measures 7" x 5
