Summary: "He's fighting for your butter tarts!"
Comment: Here is another wonderfully wacky collection of imaginary nostalgia from Canadian cartoonist Bruce McCall. This is pretty much the same sort of collection as his book _Zany Afternoons_ was, and it is a pleasant surprise to see that there is no recycled material from the earlier book to this one.
In case you are unfamiliar with McCall's work, he used to be an automobile advertisement illustrator back in the Fifties. He uses the same style to the same retro-cheesy effect in his spoofs of old Popular Mechanics articles, imaginary stomping grounds of the rich & famous of the Twenties and Thirties, and lots of gibes at his old home, Canada.
The original written material for this book is so-so, but it's only a page long, every thirty pages or so. The cartoons, with their marvelous verisimilitude of the real period pieces they send up, are just great. McCall is a master at capturing eras that never were.
