Cartoons for victory / Warren Bernard, 256 p.
A compilation of American newspaper strips, ads, comic book covers, and single-panel cartoons that were published during WWII. Each section has commentary by Bernard giving context on particular topics: what a victory garden was, how scrap metal recycling worked, etc. I personally would have like more text, but the focus of the books is clearly the cartoons, and I can't really argue with that. The large trim size is especially nice when the art is a Sunday cartoon strip, as the reproduction is large and easy to read.
