LARRY ALCALA ALA 'HITCHCOCK'



Left- Larry Alcala
Right-Alfred Hitchcock

"Slice of Life" is probably one of Larry Alcala’s most popular cartoons. Inspired by director Alfred Hitchcock who often did cameo appearances in most of his films, Alcala
humorously portrayed himself in “Slice of Life,” cleverly concealing his caricature face within the cartoon. Every weekend, at Weekend Magazine (started in April 1980), readers never missed, tried to search his face, in crowded places, among the bushes, in pavements, in garbages, debris, etc.

SPOT HIM!


"Quiapo in the Sixties"
