That was the funniest Climbing Cartoon I have ever seen.

Around 1981 I met a french fellow in the valley that had a book of french climbing cartoons that were quite good. The one I rememeber most was the drawing of a hand that had the index finger and pinky curling in opposition to the middle two fingers. The result was the fingers acted like cams on a Friend.
Ideal for offsized cracks...
Was I still tripping or does anyone else recall that cartoon or the book it was in?

Considering a book of climbing cartoons:
A "Fools Effort" may be a bit of an overstatement, considering I'm reading one of John Longs illustrated books (Close Calls). Also, let's not forget Duane Raleigh's illustrated book, "Knot's and Ropes for Climbers". I think there are many areas where illustrations (e.g. cartoons) are appropriate and will sell, when marketed properly. Not to mention screen prints for t-shirts to sell at environmental fundraisers. Amongst diverse other ideas which have yet come to fruition.
