Q: I remember a cartoon from ’76, ‘ 77, ‘ 78 ?? which showed three ways to put on a sales presentation. One was to be clean cut and professional, one was to come in acting like a clown, and one was to give BJs under the table. What issue was that in?
A: It was the December 1975 (Money) issue. The article was called “The National Lampoon Guide to Effective Salesmanship” by Tony Hendra and Gerald Sussman, illustrations uncredited. (Thanks to Jay.)

Jay, what issue was that from?
Not sure, Mark. I want to say the “success” issue…But I’d have to check to be sure.

That’s it. The December 1975 (Money) issue.
http://www.nationallampoon.com/flashbacks/salesmanship/salesman1.html is a broken link. The current NatLamp site is so-o-o-o multimedia.
You’ll have to take that up with Jay (see the first post). He is actually the guy who puts that stuff on the official NL website.
