ARNO, PETER (1904-1968) Two cartoons.
Est: $600 - $900
ARNO, PETER (1904-1968) Two cartoons. Two preliminaries for cartoons likely intended for The New Yorker but possibly never published or even completed. Ink and charcoal on paper. 19 x 11 inches and 10 1/4 x 8 1/4 inches. Not signed or framed. Curtis Arnoux Peters, Jr, known professionally as Peter Arno, did perhaps more than any other artist to set the modern urbane tone of the Golden Age of The New Yorker through his slightly naughty cartoons. He was among the most famous of the magazine's early contributors and submitted work including 99 covers from 1925 until his death in 1968. A Yale man, he submitted comic drawings to the campus humor magazine while an undergraduate. He worked as an illustrator for the silent movie company Chadwick Films before hooking up with The New Yorker. He was fascinated with show business and got involved with writing, designing and/or producing four Broadway shows. He made a cameo appearance in the Paramount picture Artists and Models (1937) directed by Raoul Walsh and starring Jack Benny and Ida Lupino. Arno's published work demonstrate more polish than these relatively spontaneous but still witty sketches. He probably submitted them to the editors as initial ideas for cartoons, but apparently never followed through on them. Nd
