Just trying out a few things. Animals are difficult to draw, and none more difficult than cats. Goddamned cats.

Agnes Nicholson-Berger: The Cat Lady Lawyer of Sunset Strip

January 3, 2014

Back in the golden age of Hollywood, it was not uncommon to see Mrs Nicholson-Berger walking her leashed black cat Butchie Boy to and from her office on La Cienega Boulevard.

Ever a practical woman, Nicholson-Berger actually owned four succesive cats named Butchie Boy, each one promptly replaced upon its demise. Due to a favor she once did for George Cukor, each version of Butchie Boy appeared in several films, including My Fair Lady, Adam's Rib, and most noticeably, alongside Vincent Price and Peter Lorre in their segment from the 1961 horror vignette film, Tales of Terror.

Of Butchie Boy's silver screen fame, Mrs. Nicholson-Berger remarked, "What do I know from movies? I just take the checks."

Quick, goofy doodle of Liam Clancy, reminding me to do a better job of following Liam’s advice to Bob Dylan: “Remember Bob, no fear, no envy, no meanness.”
