Really enjoying the BOB HOPE comic books that I've been adding to my collection! Here's BOB HOPE #102 (Dec. 1966 - Jan. 1967)! 8^)

THE ANT AND THE AARDVARK!

Always enjoyed DePatie-Freleng's THE ANT AND THE AARDVARK! There were 17 theatrical shorts produced between 1969 and 1971 (released through United Artists), and featured JOHN BYNER doing a Dean Martin voice for The Ant, and a Jackie Mason impression for The Aardvark. This is the original painted art for an Ant and the Aardvark puzzle. 8^)
