Title	About to be ushered in, ready or not; 1970
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Merle Cunnington. A crowd of people stand just outside the large, open entryway of a building that is labeled "The wonderful world of tomorrow (super technology)." A sign just inside the doorway with an arrow pointing further in is labeled "21st century." Two robots with square heads snatch people from the crowd and pull them into the doorway. A young person being pulled in appears eager, but other people seem anxious. In the foreground, a parent places a protective arm around a child and a dog watches. The cartoon caption reads, "About to be ushered in, ready or not."
