Teddy Roosevelt: Cartoons Magazine Centennial, May 1912, Part 12
It’s Teddy Time again, as we continue our up-to-the-minute coverage, of the Presidential Election of 1912! Today’s round of jewels, of course come from the May 1912 Centennial issue of Cartoons Magazine!
Above, tongue-in-cheek, Saint Teddy Roosevelt, as pictured by cartoonist Fontaine Fox.
Below, a set of cartoons by John DeMar (hinting that T.R. might jump to a third party), Charles Bowers, and others. I particularly like here, the “futurist“-style drawing of T.R., by E.A. Bushnell.
Click on the above & below pictures, to view the cartoons in detail, and read their captions.
Next, below, a listing of T.R.’s accomplishments as President, by cartoonist John T. McCutcheon.
