Harrison Cady (1877 - 1970) Oil on Canvasboard, Signed, Measures ( 12 x 16 inches ) w/frame ( 17 x 21 inches ) Harrison Cady was a noted illustrator, born in Gardner, Massachusetts and best known for his works in Bedtime Stories, a daily-newspaper created by book and magazine writer Thornton W. Burgess. Burgess conceived the character of Peter Rabbit (not to be confused with Beatrix Potters creation of the same name), and each of these Bedtime Stories was illustrated with a drawing by Cady, who had illustrated some of Burgess magazine stories as early as 1911. Cady started his art career in the last years of the nineteenth century. He was better noted at the time for his work in books and magazines and for his gag cartoons. He also did work as a comic-strip artist, having begun working in that field for the Philadelphia Press starting in 1905. His first Peter Rabbit newspaper comic feature page appeared on Sunday, August 15, 1920, in the Tribune, and was later distributed nationally by the New York Herald-Tribune Syndicate.

Est: $1,500 - $2,500
HARRISON CADY (1877-1970) "Gulliver Knickerbocker and the Lilliputians." Cartoon published in LIFE magazine, published September 19, 1912. Pen and ink on thin board. 675x560 mm; 26 1/2x22 inches (sheet). Unsigned. Tipped to mount; matted. See condition report. Literature: Violet and Denis Kitchen, Madness in Crowds, The Teeming Mind of Harrison Cady, Beehive Books, 2019. Page 96. This cartoon by Cady riffs on Jonathan Swift's famous satirical novel Gulliver's Travels by comparing the influx of Jewish immigrants into New York City to Gulliver and the Lilliputians. Cady drew upon stereotypes to depict the tiny Jewish men, rendered with exaggerated large and curved noses, who appear preoccupied with taking over the economy and turning a profit on everything from Gulliver's curly hair and hat, which they cut with saws and scissors, to the very land they inhabit that has been renamed "New Jerusalem." Like many illustrators of his day, Cady's work sometimes reflected commonly held prejudices and several of Cady's illustrations leading up to World War I are tinged with the anti-Semitic and anti-immigrant sentiments seen here. It is not known if Cady shared these problematic views, or if he was carrying out the opinions of his publishers and their requirements for assignments. As with many early Cadys, this sheet is singed at the edges as a result of a devastating fire at his Crown Heights, Brooklyn apartment in 1926 from which most of his artwork was saved, but barely. The Cady works in the Smithsonian Institute show similar fire and water damage in addition to the uneven edge loss where mildew destroyed the paper beyond restoration.
