Will Eisner was always looking for new outlets for his cartooning skills, and he found such an outlet with Baronet paperbacks. These are breezy and light-hearted gags which put me in mind of Dave Berg's work for MAD Magazine. The books were arranged by theme and Eisner's work was combined with that of Keith Diaczun, Barry Caldwell, and Wade Hampton.
These frothy little paperbacks must've found an audience because there are several of them. I've managed to round up the ones pictured here.
