View scansFirst printing, no dust jacket. A Cartoonist's Philosophy by Percy Crosby was self-published by the author after many publishers rejected the book. The book is illustrated with ten full page plates by Crosby, including three in color and one duo-tone image. The images include cityscapes, character studies, and political cartoons. A reflective, autobiographical work, full of touching details and keen observation. Part I describes Crosby's travels in France. In Part II, Crosby contrasts social conditions in Europe with those in the U.S. Crosby won great fame and wealth as the creator of the comic strip Skippy which, in its day, was as popular as Charles Schultz's Peanuts. Skippy was in syndication for two decades and served as the basis for several novels, comic books, Big Little Books, and films. Crosby also published Three Cheers for the Red, Red and the Red, which derided the New Deal.
