The Wall Street Journal Cartoon Collection is now online at Baker Library here. The Collection was donated to the library by Charles Preston. Mr. Preston is the founder and editor of the cartoon feature in The Wall Street Journal, which has appeared in the paper under the heading “Pepper…and Salt” since June 6, 1950. Read about the Collection in this Wall Street Journal article here: “A Visit With Charles Preston, Pepper … and Salt’s Man for All Season(ing)s.”
(Check out the 1990’s cartoon (item 2) where the man is answering the phone and responds to the caller: “But I’ll certainly keep you in mind in case I ever take leave of my senses and decide to entrust all my savings to a complete stranger on the phone.”)
