Modern Cartooning

Today's post is for fans of the 'modern' cartoon style that came from the UPC studio's. Started soon after the, it wasn't until this graphic and simplified cartoon style caught on in the newspapers and magazines. It was quicker to be adepted in the advertising bussiness, as these three samples from 1957 show. I don't know who did them. Probably some parttime advertising cartoonist. Anyone who can help me, is welcome to add a comment.

These three pieces are the ads from Listerine Antiseptic (nowadays manufactured by Johnson & Johnson).

There wre more strips for Listerine, but I wasn't always as good in noting them in my posts. One is the single cartoon series by Denks, a pseudonymn for Dik Browne when he was already working on Hi and Lois.
