New CAF Gallery Room Features 8 "Redone" Playboy Cartoons

Doug's had nearly 500 full-page color cartoons published in Playboy magazine since the early 1960s; his first was in the September 1964 issue.  Since then, he's redrawn very few.

The newest CAF gallery room on the Doug Sneyd Premium Gallery at www.comicartfans.com features 8 of these "redone" originals, including the 5 on this blog post.
