Abstract:
John Jonik is a postwar and contemporary magazine and political cartoonist from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania whose works have appeared in a wide spectrum of publications ranging from local, independent newspapers, trade and professional journals, to national newspapers and magazines including: The New Yorker, Playboy, National Lampoon, Cosmopolitan, Better Homes and Gardens, Wall Street Journal, and Esquire. His cartoons provide satirical humor and opinions on a range of themes and issues such as social activism, the environment, marijuana use, and healthcare. The John Jonik papers comprise: original published and unpublished cartoons, sketchbooks, tearsheets, printed materials, correspondence, business papers and royalty statements, catalogs, and artifacts.

John Jonik was born on April 30, 1942 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Edward L. and Mary (Prior) Jonik. He attended Villanova University for a year before he transferred and studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts from 1961-1966. In addition to cartooning, John's artistic endeavors included: painting, wood sculpture, esoteric collection arrangements, and murals. Jonik exhibited his work in galleries in and around Philadelphia.

In the 1960s, Jonik focused on his cartoons which were accepted and published in a number of publications including: The New York Times, National Lampoon, Audubon, The New Yorker, Playboy, Cosmopolitan, Readers' Digest and Mad Magazine. His political work has appeared in Z Magazine, Earth First! Journal, The Ecologist, Funny Times, as well as many small activist publications.

In the late 1970s-early 1980s Jonik began drawing design ideas for various products and giftware collections. Companies such as Enesco and Silvestri sold a number of products based upon Jonik's work including snowdomes (water globes), mugs, hangers, clocks, and ornaments.

The John Jonik papers comprise: original drawings (monochrome and color), unpublished original drawings, tear sheets, correspondence with publishers, acceptance and rejection slips, sketchbooks, printed materials, correspondence, business papers and royalty statements, catalogs, and artifacts.

Series 1 comprises John Jonik's original artwork, some published cartoons; but the bulk unpublished cartoons and original sketches. This series also includes artwork from Jonik's childhood and time in school at the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts.

Series 2 documents the publication and proliferation of Jonik's artwork. Comprised of tearsheets, newspapers, newsletters, and printed materials, this series provides a guide to his magazine publishing over the course of fifty years. Materials in this series are grouped into three subseries: correspondence, tear sheets, and books.

Jonik was an artist and entrepreneur. He sold a number of designs to companies like Ensco, the home décor and personalized accessory company in Illinois. Jonik designed water globes, pens, mirrors, mugs, ornaments, hangers, clocks and even games. Series 3 comprises his design ideas and artwork related to giftware as well as samples of products based upon his designs. This series also includes his business papers which comprise contracts, royalty states, correspondence, and notes.

The collection is organized into 3 series: Series 1: Artwork, 1950-2009, Series 2: Publications and printed materials, 1960-2022, Series 3: Commercial art, business papers, 1977-2011.

Gift of John Jonik, 2019-2021.
