Hello, I am a long-time cartoonist hobbyist, and your description immediately reminded me of a turn of the century cartoonist named John McCutcheon, who painted the "Injun Summer" cartoon in 1912. I did a fair bit of research this morning, and came up with the following source for the picture: http://www.wvec.k12.in.us/hhe/Founders/annie.htm However, you should not lift original art from another Web page. If interested in obtaining a copy of Mr. McCutcheon's photo from the Chicago Tribune Gift Store in Chicago, IL, you may receive color reproductions on heavy paper, including the words. They are $4.95 at the store or $10 via the mail. Further contact information is available on this page: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=www.purdue.edu/PER/PageMill_Images/Injun.Summer.jpeg&imgrefurl=http://www.purdue.edu/PER/Sp99Perspective.letters.html&h=361&w=296&prev=/images%3Fq%3DInjun%2BSummer%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26sa%3DN I wish you luck in obtaining a copy of this picture!

Let me give you a little hint: if you cancel your question, you won't have to pay the $20. If you leave it up, a "researcher" will simply crib my answer and collect the money for doing nothing. |
