Beskrivning:

A rare full-page Saturday Krazy Kat comic in which Krazy tries to understand why Door Mouse (a minor character from the early strips) is carrying a door. Krazy expounds upon the door as a useless object while Door Mouse uses it as a bridge, a raft, and a table, and to protect them from the elements. Ultimately it is used to block one of Ignatz's bricks from hitting Krazy. Click the image to view it full-size.

Note: When Krazy Kat says "The best thing you can say about it is, when is a door not a door, and the answer is, when it's a jug -- which is all a joke" he is misquoting a popular American joke. The actual answer is "when it's ajar".

Note also that in the lower-left panel (#19) Krazy is actually leaning not against a physical object but rather the edge of the panel.
