DROODLE

Historical record from James Callow Folklore Archive.

TWO POLACKS WALKING ABREAST

Submitter comment:

AS WITH ALL DROODLES, THE PICTURE IS SHOWN TO A PERSON, AND HE
IS ASKED "WHAT IS THIS?" AFTER HE GIVES UP, HE IS TOLD.
THIS WAS CIRCULATING AT MY HIGH-SCHOOL, CENTRAL CATHOLIC IN
CANTON, OHIO, IN 1970-71. RECENTLY MY YOUNGER BROTHER, NOW A STUDENT
AT THE SAME SCHOOL, CAME HOME WITH THE SAME DROODLE. ONE WAY THINGS
SUCH AS THIS ARE SPREAD, I BELIEVE, IS THAT STUDENTS PUT THEM ON
THEIR TEXTBOOKS, AND WHEN THEY SELL THE TEXTBOOK THE FOLLOWING YEAR,
SOMEONE NEW PICKS IT UP AND PASSES IT ON.
