Sunday Stamps II - 16

2014 Happy Easter
designed by cartoonist Peter Gaymann.
Apparently chickens feature prominently in P Gay's drawings, and this one is getting a design plan (entwurf) from a rabbit for a decorated egg. I must admit, it took me a moment to see what was happening, so focused was I on the Frohe Ostern! Mr Gaymann has been drawing cartoons for over 30 years and you can find quite an extensive selection on google, but the captions are all in a written font  (as the above Frohe Ostern, but usually much smaller), which I found almost impossible to decipher.
It is also interesting to note that in Europe it is an adult rabbit, whereas here in North America, it is a cute, little bunny that brings the Easter eggs.

for Easter

  1. Great cartoon. I couldn't find an egg of any kind.

  2. Ready painted eggs popping out of hen's bottoms would certainly be an Easter treat, LOL.
