I came accross a few chess cartoons by Jerry King. I especially liked the one above, but you can also see: (
1,
2,
3,
4 ,
5 ), all of them from section "
Cartoons" at impressive, if poorly designed "
Chessville".
Nothing on the chessboard is very visible . The joke goes around the idea, commonplace outside the chess world, that playing chess takes loooong time... then, those people get impressed by blitz games... even if classical chess takes long I'm always short of time... time is relative
