Winsor McCay, cartoonist and animator, died in 1934 but he set the standard in animated movie making that others, including Walt Disney, were duty bound to follow. He was also well known for his newspaper comic strips, Gertie the
Dinosaur and Little Nemo in Slumberland.
However, his socio-political cartoons have been somewhat overlooked, perhaps because of the success of his strips and animations. Here is a selection of those cartoons from the years 1929 and 1930 - in some ways very similar to our own.
