Bicentennial Teeth

We're dealing with a family dental emergency this week, so instead of the usual in-depth Bicentennial Comics entry here's an editorial cartoon about Jimmy Carter's teeth:

Okay, this isn't about President Carter's teeth, it just uses his well-known smile to comment on the Bicentennial anniversary in a fairly innocuous and celebratory manner. This cartoon, by Bruce Danby, ran on July 1, 1976, in the Bangor Daily News -- where Danby is still employed all these years later! The U.S. doesn't have many staff editorial cartoonists left these days, so it's great to see that he's still at it.

More next week, teeth willing!
