I am wondering why the \ref{} did not return the figure number when

Any suggestion?

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{fullpage}

Figure \ref{Cartoon} shows a cartoon that was drawn in 1992.

\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=291pt, height=114pt]{Cartoon.png}\\
\vskip 0.08in
\textbf{Figure 1:}{This cartoon was drawn in 1992.}\label{Cartoon}

Many thanks

that is not a caption, use \caption{text}, otherwise where will not be a
number is the referencable sence.

Unfortunately, \caption{} can only be used inside float environments.
As you can see the, I want two things:
1) Non-floating objects (I want to control the place where which the
figure is placed, at least the order of figures).
2) To reference such figures for further referencing.
Thanks
