Happy Cartoonists Day Yesterday

[That's Jake Vol for Life]

I was not even aware that there was such a thing, but when I found out about it a day late, I decided to celebrate myself by posting some old drawings on my Substack site (jakevest@substack.com). While looking through some sketchbooks and files, I found this one -- I think from maybe 1973 or 1974. It was right after they put in the new upper deck on the student side, the one that swayed.
My concept here was what if we did a card section that said what was really on the minds of fans. The message might even be more timely these days in light of the Nico transfer.

Grew up reading That’s Jake in the 80s in Jacksonville. Always tickled to see Tennessee stuff on there as a kid.

Nicely rendered drawing for a cartoonist! If you'd said you pursued architecture I'd believe you.

Also--since this was done during the early '70s--congratulations on accomplishing that card stunt without spellcheck.

Good find, thanks for posting!
