Suggestions for Lovers from the Jungle!

By -

 Hi Guys!

If you're like me, you probably can't handle it when you want to say something mushy to the object of your affections!  So you take the easy way out and let the card do the talking for you!  If the card is funny, that's even better, because if she or he says "ha ha loser, get lost," you don't really have to own what you are saying!

People understood this way back in the early 1900s, when these postcards were printed.  Each one features a pair of anthro jungle animals and a humorous saying about love.  I guess the idea was to show that love is beastly or something.  I gotta agree with that!



Here's a couple of sharp-dressed tigers!  The lady's bone hatpin is cool and I bet she got those ostrich feathers the hard way!  His tongue probably tastes like stogie.  If I were Maud, I'd keep my distance!



I asked Wendy if this is how 'roos make out and boy did she give me the hairy eyeball!  Sheesh!


 

What's up with these rhinoceroses?  Which one's the guy?  Maybe they're both guys?  Or maybe they're both girls?  If you ask me, I'd say both of them have the "rino," whatever that is!      



Well, this is sorta nice.  But I bet elephants get way sick of "trunk" jokes.  It's like kangaroos and pouches.  If I'm feelin' like I want Wendy to slap me, all I gotta do is make a crack about pockets!

Hey, don't get me wrong!  I'm not into Wendy or any girl slappin' me!  I'll never understand girls and I sure as heck will never understand love!  That's just how it is, know what I mean?

      Ah, cool! I thought it was some kind of slang, but I couldn't figure it out.

      Thanks!

Abandoned Cat (Sute-Neko Tora Chan)

Abandoned Cat Little Tora, 1947. A family finds an abandoned kitten and takes it in.  But one of the children is jealous of the attention shown to the newcomer and runs away.  In 1947 war orphans were everywhere in Japan. Directed by Kenzo Masaoka.   https://youtu.be/d_nN0_DZPHw       A dream of domestic bliss.   https://youtu.be/-6toCCKMBqo   This ends with the family all together as one on a Christmas, decorated tree and everything.   https://youtu.be/cF4qS1iQ-Gs       What is conspicuous is the lack of a father.  I guess at this time so many Japanese families had their fathers and sons gone that this cartoon designed to comfort and to empathize with those bereft.  In that regard this is a very sad movie, very well made. Life is far too marvelous to be squandered in war. https://misterscribbles.blogspot.com/

The Cockroach Union and Waterbugs Protective Association

      Hi Guys! I'm back with some more anthro bug weirdness courtesy of Peterman's Roach Food!   This stuff was designed to kill cockroaches and other insect vermin way back in the early 1900s !  It came in a bright red tin covered with microscopic pictures that tell a most distressing story !  Seems that the bugs are up in arms because something is killing them off !  They have formed a " protective association " and are marching in protest kind of like Coxey's Army !           But it's no good !  All that marching has worked up the bugs' appetites !  So they check in to chow down on some of that delicious " roach food ."  Too bad it's poison !  One by one, the roaches eat the tainted feast and they croak , right there on the package !     Man, that's tough !  But I guess if you've got cockroaches marching around in your kitchen , this is how you deal with them !   ...

Two Different Dragons

  I'm not sure if these dragons are considered "anthro" or "furry"(although they both have a little fur)-but they are both intelligent creatures!  Haku from Spirited Away- He is an eastern dragon with a wolf-like head and white fur/scales and green mane. He can transform into a human boy when he chooses-plus he is also a river spirit/guardian. He never speaks in his dragon form but he is a very intelligent creature. If you have not seen this classic Studio Ghibli movie, please do so! Falkor the luck dragon is from the 1984 movie The Neverending Story. In the original book illustrations, he had the look of a Eastern dragon with a lion's head. In the movie,he had the long body of an Eastern dragon but with a dog-like face. Either way,he is a positive creature who encourages the hero Atreyeu throughout the film. " Believe and good luck will find you"
