Shakespeare Howls Cocktail Napkins

I've found some mighty odd cocktail ephemera in my years of puttering around antique stores and thrift sales, but this box of 50 cocktail napkins, juxtaposing quotations from Shakespeare with mildly-risqué cartoons of dames and drunkards, really takes the stuffed martini olive. Seldom have the words of the immortal Bard been used to less salubrious effect.

I've scanned the best ones, and uploaded them to a gallery for your viewing pleasure.

Bottoms up!

I'd guess these napkins are the end result of two people pondering the age old question "How can we make money from our masters in literature and art?"

Those are awesome! It's funny because I just ran across this flickr pool while looking for Anne Leaf illustrations:

the pool images took me to the dinosaurs & robots blog which linked back to your post...

No, but I really should try to determine my Bacon Number one of these days.
