Last six “How Not to Get an Okay’ cartoons by Stan Fine
Posted by Eli on August 1st, 2008In the late 1950’s, Stan Fine did these “How Not to Get an Okay” cartoons for Look magazine cartoon editor Gurney Williams. Williams included them in a monthly newsletter he put out for cartoonists who dropped by his office on Wednesday “Look Day”. I have written about this extensively, and my most recent posting was just a few weeks ago — you’ll find it right here.
I have 26 issues of the newsletter, dating from April 1957 through August 1959, with a few months obviously missing. So this collection is by no means complete. Does anyone else out there have copies of Gurney Williams’ “Memos” ? Just wondering.

Yep, I’ve always liked this gag. Still do, I have to confess.

Okay, so here’s my beef with some (certainly not all) publications: they change my captions, without asking permission! My caption for this cartoon was “I’m a management guru — the regular guru is two mountains over.” I wish I knew which editor decided to change “a management” to “the quality” — I would have loved to tell him or her that the change ruined a perfectly acceptable gag.
I’m happy to report that most publications wouldn’t dream of changing the wording of a caption without asking permission. I’ve even been contacted by phone by editors who wanted to make a change, but wouldn’t do it without asking first.

Well, back in 1978, that would have been a BIG promotion.
