(Cultural crit)

nypl:

What is the difference between a photographer and the whooping cough?

Why are ‘Capstan’ Cigarettes like L100,000?

Why is a school boy being flogged like you eye?

Why a plum cake is like the ocean?

.

For more delightfully dumb old-time jokes, go to the library’s digital collection of “riddle” cigarette cards. (Warning: they really are dumb.)
