11 March 1959 Afterburner

The 11 March 1959 Afterburner had seven new graphics found on pages 2, 3, 7, 8 and 10. The last two were local productions, while the rest were from AFPS.

Another by SeBe from AFPS. We saw another like this recently, in that its message is crystal clear and useful. If the target audience was 18-25 year olds, then using a cartoon to get their attention probably worked. The artwork is ok.

Not a bad joke. AFPS, also by SeBe.

What is this telling us about humor in the late 1950s? What is it telling us about the US Navy at that time? Wow, truly unfunny. Probably from AFPS.

A little propaganda piece in the middle of the newspaper.

AFPS' work. Kind of lame, but I'm sure it kept eyeballs in the paper.

A locally produced banner for a recurring article on Yokota's gun club.

This John Boyle piece was part of a sports feature on the possibility of no Little League season at Yokota. Boyle must have had some cartooning training.
