Description
1893. 23 pen and ink drawings affixed to a sheet of ruled paper on card mount, signed "from sketches by 'Zim'" lower right on paper. Some foxing, wear to mount with some loss. 23 pen and ink drawings affixed to a sheet of ruled paper on card mount, signed "from sketches by 'Zim'" lower right on paper. Highly accomplished sketches after Eugene "Zim" Zimmerman (1862 - 1935), a Swiss-American cartoonist, an early pioneer in the exaggerated "big foot" style of caricature, who did much work for Puck and Judge. This grouping of "American types" includes racial and ethnic stereotypes of blacks, Jews, Italians, and so on. [With:] "A Sample of American Humour," a two-panel pen-and-ink drawing involving a Chinese and Native American, inscribed "from 'Judge'", possibly after "Zim" [and:] "A Page from America" and "Another Page from America," two sheets containing 9 pen-and-ink comic drawings, some hand-colored, signed "W.O.H." Many with highly problematic portrayals of race and gender.
