Item Description
18-7/8x22" sheet of paper has pen and ink original art for cartoon by Lucius Curtis "Lute" Pease Jr. (1869-1963), an American editorial cartoonist and journalist. He was cartoonist for the "Newark Evening News" from 1914 to 1954 and received the 1949 Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning. Art features German soldiers being attacked on two fronts by kilt-clad "Picardy Drive" and "Marine Salient Drive." Top has hand-lettered "Mixing Him A Bit" title in pencil. Pease has signed at lower left.
Paper is evenly aged and shows obvious margin wear, w/corner pieces missing and several small chips and tears measuring .5" to 1" or so. Top center has 5" tear. 2.75" tear at lower right w/some tape staining/aged tape on back. Good/VG overall, but art remains clean and would make for nice framed display.
