What sort of cloth would you choose to make up the tie for the Man in the Yellow Hat?  Given the sporty/outdoorsy nature of the rest of his clothes, I'm thinking Irish poplin.

Not animated cartoon characters but singularly dapper comic book/strip animals would include Rudy the Chimp--a very George Burns-like talking chimp who was a show business veteran and always dressed very nattily. Rudy starred in his own syndicated comic strip about 20+ years ago.

Another, earlier character would be Captain Marvel's pal Mr. Tawny, the talking tiger. The tiger was a sharp, if somewhat flashy dresser and regularly wore pocket squares.

I LOVED Politenessman! Some of my co-workers told me I was very like him back in his heyday. I took it as a high compliment--even though he was portrayed as a rather irrelevant figure: For example, when he sees a lifeguard giving a woman mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, he boinks them with his steel hankie and sermonizes briefly on the inappropriateness of public displays of affection.
