William H. Walker Cartoon Collection, 1894-1922 (inclusive)

Extent:
43 boxes and 29 oversize folders
Abstract:
The William H. Walker Cartoon Collection reflects the political climate of America during the late 19th Century and early 20th Century.

While the earlier years did not encompass the quantity of cartoons of the latter years, Walker's satirical style is ever poignant. Through the use of humor, Walker directs attention towards such topics as war, immigration and domestic politics. These themes are related to the reader through the synergistic relationship of ink on paper and intellectual wit. In turn, this relationship generated a light, but serious message for all to appreciate.
