About This Item
San Diego, CA: Idea & Design Works, LLC, 2014. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 328 pages. hardcover with dust jacket. Color Illustrations throughout. Clean, unmarked copy with only minor wear to dust jacket. A lavish book devoted to the most important political satire and cartoon magazine in American history. Published from 1877 to 1918, Puck was regularly a major political battleground and is credited with single-handedly thwarting the third-term ambitions of Ulysses Grant in 1880 and electing Grover Cleveland to the presidency in 1884. Puck did it with art-lavish, color, full-page and two-page center-spread cartoons. It was the first American magazine to publish color lithographs on a weekly basis and, for nearly forty years, was a training ground and showcase for some of the country's most talented cartoonists, led by its co-founder, Joseph Keppler. This retrospective contains nearly 300 full-color plates. Record # 351106
