Laugh Lines Art Opening!

Last Thursday was the opening of the Huntington (NY) Arts Council's presentation of "Laugh Lines: The Art of the Bernt Toast Gang" in Melville (Long Island), NY.

For more on the history of the Bernt Toast Gang, here's what Mike Lynch, one time National Cartoonist Society Long Island Chapter Fearless Leader posted back in 2007:

Even though I had a number of pieces in the show, it was still a great success, as artists ranging from Stan Goldberg (Archie), Sandy Kossin (children's book illustration) and my buddy Ray Alma (Mad Magazine) also had work in the show.
To add to that, my good friends Tom and Anna Richmond made the trek from Minneapolis! Tom said he'd fly out if I bought him beer.
Here's some pics from the event! (click thumbnails for full size)
