Barbara Dale's studio and cartoon collection
Besides being a stunningly successful cartoonist, Barbara Dale also has great collections of comics and cartoon history. Things like Thomas Nast's business card. She's known everyone, and gotten cartoons from many of them. Barbara opened her house and studio for a ComicsDC tour recently and has agreed to let me show some of her excellent collection.

Clifford Berryman Cartoon Collection at the DC Public Library (UPDATED)
|
About this collection
The cartoons address D.C. community issues, congressional appropriation and District finances, holidays and events, national politics, District political representation, weather and nature, and World Wars I and II. Many of these works include Berryman's most famous creation, the "Berryman Bear," a small, fuzzy bear cub often paired with President Theodore Roosevelt that was the inspiration for the toy teddy bear. The collection also contains a handful of miscellaneous Berryman drawings, cards, and caricatures.
The entire Berryman collection has been digitized and is available here.
Most Berryman images are in the public domain, but the rights status of each item is noted.
