This office may have been known to the newspaper staff as "the chamber of horrors," but that didn't stop the illustrator Winsor McCay from sporting a boater hat, ca. 1920. The paper was the NY Journal American, owned by William Randolph Hearst. McCay is best known for the paper's Sunday color newspaper cartoon, Little Nemo in Slumberland, and the animated film short Gertie the Trained Dinosaur. Sports page cartoonist Joe McGurk is in the center; the other man unidentified.

Edward Linley Sambourne (1844-1910), 'The Race of Death', ''Punch'', June 3, 1903

Source

I'm very much in the "anti-car culture" camp and find cars to be one of the worst aspects of living in any city (especially in Philly in the summer). It seems early cartoonists often depicted cars as machines of death around their general introduction into our shared public spaces. (I've amassed a rather large collection of these anti-car cartoons, this one from Punch being just one example.) Here's some car facts from a recent study from the Journal of Transport Geography: 1) 1 in 34 deaths are caused by cars and automobility with 1,670,000 deaths per year 2) Cars and automobility have killed 60–80 million people since their invention

Milestone Monday

On this date, May 22 in 1907, Georges Prosper Remi, better known to the world as the Belgian cartoonist Hergé, creator of the uber-popular comic book series The Adventures of Tintin, was born in Etterbeek, Brussels. The series, which follows the adventures of the intrepid young Belgian reporter Tintin, was published in 24 titles from 1929 to Hergé's death in 1983. They have been published in more than 70 languages with sales of more than 200 million copies, and have been adapted for radio, television, theatre, and film. The storylines thrust Tintin, along with his faithful dog Snowy and the brash and cynical Captain Haddock, into global mysteries and action-adventures, punctuated by slapstick comedy, set in the events and issues that span the 20th century.

British editions of the Tintin series were published in London by Methuen and translated into English by Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner starting in 1958. We hold 22 early printings of the English-language titles, most published by the London reprint house Magnet. Our copies run from 1972-1983.

Media publishers drop Dilbert comic strip after creator’s Black ‘hate group’ remark

Various media publishers denounced the comments by Dilbert creator Scott Adams as racist, hateful and discriminatory and said they'd no longer provide a platform for his work.

by The Associated Press

The creator of the Dilbert comic strip faced cancellations Saturday as he defended remarks describing people who are Black as members of “a hate group” from which white people should “get away.”

Various media publishers across the U.S. denounced the comments by Dilbert creator Scott Adams as racist, hateful and discriminatory while saying they would no longer provide a platform for his work.

Andrews McMeel Syndication, which distributes Dilbert, did not immediately respond Saturday to requests for comment. But Adams defended himself on social media against those whom he said “hate me and are canceling me.”...

...Adams, who is white, repeatedly referred to people who are Black as members of a “hate group” or a “racist hate group” and said he would no longer “help Black Americans.”
