The Annotated Cartoons
In 1895, William Randolph Hearst purchased the New York Journal, and went head-to-toe with his former mentor Joseph Pulitzer. A main component of Hearst's arsenal was his impressive stable of cartoonists and illustrators. One of which was an Oregon country boy named Homer Davenport. In 1898 Davenport published a book of over 80 of his cartoons for Hearst, from the period of 1895 through 1897. For the first time in more than a century, we revisit these cartoons by Davenport, equipped with stories behind the faces and issues.
Cartoons by Homer C. Davenport
Political cartoons from the gilded age. In the decade of the 1890s. Oregon cartoonist Homer Davenport wielded his pen to spray a steady stream of caustic caricatures onto the notables and notorious of the global political scene. The comic reprints from Escamilla Comics are reproduced from actual classic comics, and sometimes reflect the imperfection of books that are decades old.
Timothy Woodbridge Davenport
Dr. Timothy Woodbridge Davenport (1827-1911) is now mainly known as the father of W.R. Hearst political cartoonist Homer Davenport (1867-1912). In reality, for over half a century, T.W. Davenport was personally involved in the new state of Oregon serving in numerous capacities, including temporary Indian Agent, County Surveyor, State Representative and Senator as well as being appointed Oregon?s first State Land Agent. The last decade of his life saw a flurry of written essays, covering a wide range of topics; both observations and personal recollections. For the first time ever, we have them collected into a single volume to provide the modern reader with a glimpse into the mind of one of Oregon's early progressive statesman and pioneer philosopher.
