39 Years of Cartooning

The world's deadliest political caricaturist, little-necked, New Zealand-born David Low of the London Evening Standard, this week published his first collection of World War II cartoons, Low on the War (Simon & Schuster, $2). Low, who has cartooned for 39 of his 50 years, declared war on the Axis long before the Allies did, now doubles as a London fire warden.* German Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels, who mortally hates & fears Low's cartoons (note the clubfooted, degenerate dwarf at lower right), had a brief revenge last year: Low came down with German measles.

* He soon shaved his little goatee, practically a trademark, to keep it out of fire's way.
