Classic Humorous Photos from Life Magazine

For many years, America's favorite magazine signed off with an amusing -- often outrageous photograph designed to leave the reader laughing. LIFE Laughs Last collects more than 200 of these hilarious photographs -- every one guaranteed to warm your heart and tickle your funny bone. Continuing in the zany, whimsical tradition of the best-selling LIFE Smiles Back, here is more from LIFE's lighter side: people and pets by the score, caught by the camera in surprising, side-splitting poses. These rib-tickling photographs were submitted over the years by LIFE's loyal readers, and are assembled here by one of LIFE's most renowned editors.
