| Funky Winkerbean by Tom Batiuk Sunday Strip for September 9, 1974 |
In the spirit of the season I thought I'd make a light hearted post of two Funky Winkerbean Sunday Newspaper Strips from the 1970s dealing with the new phenomenon of computer technology. In those days desktop computers were hardly dreamed of; computers were huge automatons that cost a fortune, no thought yet of moniter screens and only big business or a very rich school could possibly afford one. This made them serious business, and remote from most people's life, and therefore prime material for cartoonists. Here Tom Batiuk takes a couple shots. Happy Holidays!
