Understanding the age-old symbolism behind modern Christmas activities

Last night I did a bit more of my sit down comedy (like stand up but seated) at the event that I mentioned a week or two back. It went quite well I think. I showed a mixture of new cartoons and (mostly) old drawings dredged up out of the depths of the archives. The idea is basically that the images are projected and I read out the captions.

This is one of the new diagrams that was included. It is part one of a couple of cartoons entitled ‘Understanding the age-old symbolism behind modern Christmas activities’.

This is an additional cartoon included at no extra cost:

I’ll post another one tomorrow or thereabouts.
