Synopsis "Oh Mother, That Man's Here Again!!: The Christmas Cards of Charles W. Carvin"
A fun-filled, full color look at the culture and politics of the 20th century. For nearly fifty years, the celebrated humorist Charles Carvin (1897-1974) drew his own Christmas cards, elaborate cartoon productions that sometimes unfolded to several pages, poking good natured fun at the political and cultural icons of America (and the world) between 1928 and 1971 -- from the Great Depression and World War II to the space race and the civil rights movement. The cast of characters ranges from Calvin Coolidge and FDR to John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson, from Adolf Hitler and Franklin Roosevelt to Nikita Krushchev and Fidel Castro, from Mae West and Will Rogers to Bob Hope and Milton Berle, from Segar's Popeye to Schulz's Charlie Brown and Snoopy. This complete collection of the cards and other drawings has 217 illustrations, mostly in full color, with explanatory notes and an introduction by the artist's grandson.
