"The home front during World War II was one of blackouts, Victory Gardens, war bonds and scrap drives. It was also a time of social
upheaval with women on the assembly line and in the armed forces and
African-Americans serving and working in a Jim Crow war effort. See how
Superman, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse and others helped fight World War II
via comic books and strips, single-panel and editorial cartoons, and
even ads. Cartoons for Victory showcases wartime work by cartoonists
such as Charles Addams (The Addams Family), Harold Gray (Little Orphan Annie), Harvey Kurtzman (Mad magazine), Will Eisner, as well as many
other known cartoonists. Over 90% of the cartoons and comics in this
book have not been seen since their first publication." a great series and a must so give them a read here.
Great stuff,
Brian
