Dr Seuss Went to War

http://orpheus.ucsd.edu/speccoll/dspolitic/

The Dr Seuss Went to War web site provides access to political cartoons drawn by Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr Seuss) for the New York publication PM between 1941 and 1943. Dr Seuss drew over 400 editorial cartoons for PM where he was the chief editorial cartoonist. The Mandeville Special Library at the University of California in San Diego holds copies of these cartoons, either the original drawings or newspaper clippings. The cartoons on the site have been scanned from newspaper clippings. The cartoons can be browsed chronologically. An introduction to the site has been written Richard Minear of University of Massachusetts Amherst.
