Another guess: That director has a real Preston Sturges (carefree hair and hats, permanently rumpled don't give-a-damn relaxed dress code, pencil mustache, chain smoker) vibe for me, but his career was on a sharp downturn after 1944... https://shop.nybooks.com/products/preston-sturges-1983?variant=11265890371 [http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0891/0192/products/d2217b07ae14fa24db1132e4ab56aaf9_1024x1024.gif?v=1448135954]<https://shop.nybooks.com/products/preston-sturges-1983?variant=11265890371> Preston Sturges<https://shop.nybooks.com/products/preston-sturges-1983?variant=11265890371> In The ReviewThis drawing appeared in the following: Kings of Comedy from the March 17, 1983 issue shop.nybooks.com Edward A.

There are 2 elements in their 1948 map that I need some help with. Who is General Drafting paying homage to in these images??? Santa & "Tina" are dancing at the US-Mexican border. Who is "Tina"? Was this an homage a famous dancer at the time? [cid:77a82154-d78c-419f-97c2-0f49cec992d5] I recognize but cannot place this image of a movie director. Who is this supposed to be?
