More Foreign Funnies.... - BettyO - 11-05-2015 01:39 PM
In this image, a bearded JWB bears a marked resemblance to Jesse James or otherwise seems to be a Lincoln Doppelganger....Weird illustration from the French magazine, L'llustration Journal; by artist, M. W. Scott; no date.

Another image depicts JWB seemingly skipping across the stage in front of the erroneously inhabited lower boxes.....also apparently from another journal/magazine - unnamed; although it may be from a British publication.

Betty, it is just my aging eyes, but it looks to me that the guy in the lower box has decided to use the opportunity (the audience being distracted) to strangle his wife/girlfriend?
