Cartoon: Dutch Registry
There are three reasons for posting this cartoon:
1. American cartoonist Chas Addams was a genius (he was the father of the Addams-family), had a rather morbid and black sense of humour (for the 1940ies/50ies, that is) and should therefore be admired;
2. I needed some sort of excuse to post my new icon;
3. I didn't have my tea yet.
And yes, that cartoon IS Pirates Of The Caribbean related. Sort of. Norrington's wearing an odd uniform, but that aside... ;-)
"Dutch registry, sir. Says he can't stop - sailing under a curse."
Chas Addams, 1941
In case you're interested in Chas Addams work: I'll be posting more of his cartoon over on erestor during the next weeks. :)
Have fun!
