Phineas the Parrot - Simplicity that Inspires!

...y'know...for such a simple little gag page, there's a LOT of great posing and staging here. And the draftsmanship and inking are first-rate! Look at the clear silhouettes, check out the strong lines of action (even when there's not much going on -- as in the second panel).  Look at the simplicity and economy and readability of the prop designs...the telephone and all the musical instruments.
