Measurements: Total size: 8.75 x 8 in Signature: Signed in pencil on the back Subject matter: President Grants re election Condition: This particular piece has lost its matting and still has tape attached to all sides. The state of preservation of these original illustration drawings that are on average over 65 years old is quite exceptional. Very, very few have any creases, tears or losses to the paper and the ink has remained uniformly vivid thanks to the family’s dry flat storage. Given that these were working drawings from which prints were made the expected edge annotations, highlighting, inscriptions, pasted labels, tack holes, staples, glue residues and scattered corrections can be found variously on the examples as illustrated in the photographs. These all add to the authenticity and immediacy of the Wartime newsroom and pressroom atmosphere, serving to reinforce the iconic status of these rare surviving testimonies to the political illustrator’s art. In a few examples additional notations have been made in the description section of the catalogue text for significant damage Provenance: The Prestigious Charles L Howard collection of comic illustration and political cartoon illustrator drawings and original art. Mr. Howard was a railway executive whose life collecting passion was assembling an example from nearly every illustrator at nearly every newspaper beginning WWI onwards to circa WWII.
