About Eveready Harton in Buried Treasure

An anonymous American stag cartoon, also called Pecker Island, follows Eveready Harton, a pun on a permanent erection. He is drawn with an oversized penis that sometimes moves on its own, and the gags are a run of explicit sexual encounters, including with animals.
