Geranium Lake Properties, "The Ballad of Four Heads", second verse

Continuing with our Christmas carol theme, we have this panel by guest artist Quinto K. Thelsear. The cartoon draws its title from the song "Die Ballade von vier langen Heads", a German minnelied which borrowed its tune from a 13th century carol, "Tempus adest floridum", which was also used as the tune for "Good King Wenceslas".

During several of his attempts, something else manifested on Yost's drawing board. For the next few days of GLP, in the spirit of the season, we will enjoy some examples of those manifestations.

Yost used elements of today's GLP in another attempt to illustrate "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (bottom image). He labeled all his attempts as failures, even though two of his pictures appeared with the "The Yellow Wallpaper" in short story anthologies. Another was used for the cover of a Gilman biography.
