I have _The Complete Cartoons of The New Yorker_, with every cartoon
published from 1924 to 2004 on 2 CD-ROMs.  I did a search on the relevant
keywords but came up empty.  The indexing of the cartoons seems pretty
comprehensive, so I'm wondering if perhaps this cartoon appeared somewhere
other than the New Yorker?
