"[A] banquet, too rich for any sustained sitting...What distinguishes this present omnibus is its often defiantly offbeat 340-odd categories. You'll find such reassuring groupings as "Commuters," "Desert Island" and "Snowmen."... The New Yorker Encyclopedia of Cartoons is quite the joy."-- Wall Street Journal

Synopsis
This monumental, two-volume, slip-cased collection includes nearly 10 decades worth of New Yorker cartoons selected and organized by subject with insightful commentary by Bob Mankoff and a foreword by David Remnick. The is the most ingenious collection of New Yorker cartoons published in book form, The New Yorker Encyclopedia of Cartoons is a prodigious, slip-cased, two-volume, 1,600-page A-to-Z curation of cartoons from the magazine from 1924 to the present. Mankoff -- for two decades the cartoon editor of the New Yorker -- organizes nearly 3,000 cartoons into more than 250 categories of recurring New Yorker themes and visual tropes, including cartoons on banana peels, meeting St. Peter, being stranded on a desert island, snowmen, lion tamers, Adam and Eve, the Grim Reaper, and dogs, of course. The result is hilarious and Mankoff's commentary throughout adds both depth and whimsy. The collection also includes a foreword by New Yorker editor David Remnick. This is stunning gift for the millions of New Yorker readers and anyone looking for some humor in the evolution of social commentary., This monumental, two-volume, slip-cased collection includes nearly 10 decades worth of New Yorker cartoons selected and organized by subject with insightful commentary by Bob Mankoff and a foreword by David Remnick.

- e***r (1090)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem listed @ $8.85 with free shipping & 6 items available when first ordered on June 6th. Never received a response from seller but got a note from eBay that seller cancelled as "the item was no longer available".Item was still listed at this price with 4 items still available. They had another listing (item 146473672274) of the same book for $25 with 10 available. I reordered the $8.85 copy on June 12 & was cancelled today due to the "no longer available". Untrustworthy Seller.
- e***n (43)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseReported seller Four days after order was placed, I inquired about shipping date. Seller replied item was damaged and cancelled order. This is an invalid and underhanded reason because seller does have multiples of the item still in inventory under other item numbers. Even if damaged or lost, seller should have fulfilled my order because they still had the ability to do so and it is still in inventory. A respectful seller fulfills the order and doesn't undermine the buyer. Seller's Grade = F+++
