Rick McKee, CagleCartoons.com
Rick McKee's cartoon depicts a dimly lit museum where a striped-shirted thief, masked and wielding a hammer, targets a display case with a red gas can marked 'GAS,' overlooking iconic pieces like the Mona Lisa portrait, Venus de Milo statue, a large diamond, Van Gogh-style sunflowers painting, abstract Mondrian-like art, and smaller framed works.
