Title: Upholstery in the comics
Post by: Rich on October 08, 2012, 05:23:50 pm
Frank and Ernest is the only comic strip I can ever remember that has upholstery as it's subject. I remember years ago clipping one that went something like this; Caveman sitting on a rock says "Bronze age, Iron age, when is someone going to invent upholstery?". Yesterday's comic, which I found in the Washington Post is, I think, even funnier;

True, there's not too much upholstery humor out there.

Well Gene, you might want to consider what one auto trimmer doing dealer work told me back in the 80's; He loses a dollar on each job he does, but, he makes it up in volume!
