Woodrow Wilson: Cartoons Magazine Centennial 1912

From Cartoons Magazine issues of 1912, we have Presidential candidate Woodrow Wilson, depicted as either fighting monopolies (in the page from November 1912, below), or, slyly aligned with them (the above page, from October 1912).

Art by Billy DeBeck, Robert Carter, Alfred West Brewerton, and Harry Osborn (above); and Jack Wilson, W.A. Ireland, Phil Porter (below).

Click on the above & below pictures, to view the cartoons in detail, and read their captions.

Anti-Wilson cartoons above, from November 1912, by Carter and DeBeck again, plus Clifford K. Berryman and Donnell.

And, Pro-Wilson, below, from October 1912, by Brewerton and John Campbell Cory.

Above & below (both from October 1912), some Wilson cartoons with shades of grey, not really pro or con, but simply depicting difficult issues for Wilson to overcome (exception, the “wave” cartoon beneath, clearly outright pro-Wilson). Art by Luther D. Bradley, Camillus Kessler, Fred Morgan, and William Kemp Starrett, above; and Robert Satterfield, DeBeck, and Matthew Caine, below.
