Christmas Greetings from the Bunch" is a December 1950 print of line drawings reproduced from pages 16 and 17 of a publication called the Presidio. A 1983 article in the Library of Congress's Quarterly Journal is cited as further reading. The caption-card tags point to prisons, newspapers, caricatures, and Christmas, which suggests a lighthearted holiday greeting in the cartoon style common to institutional and newspaper humor of the period. The record notes that these details come from an unverified caption card, so the identity of the group named in the title is worth checking against the original publication.
