Monty by Jim Meddick for September 03, 2024

Friedrich August von Hayek, often referred to by his initials F. A. Hayek, was an Austrian-British academic who contributed to economics, political philosophy, psychology, and intellectual history.

At least not that Karl guy.

Looks like Geppetto to me.

The collective is our path to glory.

Daguerreotypes were images on a highly polished silver coated copper plate, that were usually housed in a hinged wooden case. Doubtful that Sedgie had one in his wallet. (Yea I did a little research this morning.)

I’m surprised he didn’t say “Milton Friedman”, a man after the Devil’s own heart.

The addition of rosy cheeks is a nice touch!

Actually as face paintings go thats not a bad one to have, quasi-Victorian

Looks like Freud to me. Probably has something to do with my mother. :)

He’d have made a bad bunny. :)

Maybe next time he can be one of the Gnomes of Zurich.

Those references-! Sometimes the Monty strips hit my funny bone that way that Calvin & Hobbes or Bloom County did.

ok , so once again I have to google “Daguerreotype”

I really like this twit of a character. Did Barron act like this growing up?

looks more like Groucho

The only “great” Austrian ancestor of mine was imprisoned for “Lewd” artwork…

Even though he is now considered one of the “greats”…

Such is Fame and Fate…

And carrying the family name….
