56 articles which appeared in the Vancouver, B.C. press from February 8, 1941 through February 28, 1942. The articles were commissioned by Colonel H.S. Tobin, Managing Director of Vancouver Breweries Limited and appeared in the Vancouver media. Given the dire situation faced by Britain, the directors of the brewery felt it best to set aside the greater portion of its advertising appropriation for patriotic, rather than regular business purposes and these articles were the result. Due to their popularity, they were reprinted in book form. Prior owner's name upon title page. Somewhat above-average external wear to pale green cardcovers which bear a two-inch opening between spine and top of back cover. A worthy copy of this fascinating look back to the early 1940s. Canadian unity is discussed. Book

Oblong 4to., First Edition thus, with many full-page illustrations (one cartoon partly and neatly coloured by a child); original pictorial boards, cloth back, front board (which is largely white) very lightly age-soiled else a very good, clean copy of a work increasingly hard to find in this condition. Of all David Low's work, this is perhaps the undisputed classic. Some opt instead for Low's War Cartoons (1941) which undoubtedly reflects the spirit of the times; it seems to us, however, that the present work is to be preferred simply because in covering the years 1932-35 it embraces precisely the period which gave Low the opportunity to sharpen his barb in the face of what seemed to him both government and public apathy. The creation of Colonel Blimp alone makes this a true classic of pre-war illustration. Horne, p.296 et seq.

Oblong 4to., First Edition thus, with full-page cartoons throughout; original pictorial boards printed in red and black, cloth back lettered in white, a near fine copy of a work increasingly hard to find in anything like this condition. Of all David Low's work this is arguably the undisputed classic, covering as it does the first three years of WWII. Some opt instead for Low's Political Parade (1936) which embraces the years 1932-35, the period during which Low shapened his barb in the face of what seemed to him both government and public apathy. EXCEEDINGLY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. Horne, p.296 et seq.
