Re: The good old days, when cartoonists were learning
Our western rationale behind the white sousaphones is about replacing heavier brass with lighter synthetic materials.
The Indian understanding of our white sousaphones is: They want white sousaphones for colour reasons. We will create ourselves a market by providing them white sousaphones.
