Stock Market Crash (1983)

1983 Dry Bones cartoon - Israeli Stock Market Crash.

Today's news is about recession jitters around the world. "Indexes" are falling. The American markets were closed because of MLK Day and the world is apparently waiting to see what happens when they re-open.

Today's Golden Oldie is a cartoon from exactly 25 years ago this week. January 26, 1983. The topic then was the Israeli Bank Shares "Crisis".

Then, as now, your favorite cartoonist was already broke ...so he had nothing to worry about!

I started Dry Bones in Jan 1973. Since then I've been known as "Bones" to friends and colleagues. This is the first time I've ever shared the "stories behind the cartoons." Enjoy.
