The Golden Age of American Political Cartoons

This would be a great exhibit for anyone with an aspiring cartoonist in the house!

"Explore the fascinating early history of political cartooning in the United States by visiting this exclusive Hayes Museum exhibit. Vintage political cartoons and original sketches dating from 1868-1900 are used to detail the evolution of the art form, as well as the lives of popular cartoonists of the day, including James A. Wales of Clyde, Ohio – the first prominent American political cartoonist born in the United States. "
