Fred O. Seibel Editorial Cartoonist's Research Collection, ca. 1920 - 1968

This collection consists of original cartoons and research files of the political cartoonist Fred O. Seibel. Mr. Seibel was often complimented on his drawings of trees and other subjects from nature. Naturally this reflects his artistic ability, but Mr. Seibel maintained extremely large reference files which ensured that he would have pictures and drawings to consult before beginning his own cartoon. If he needed an elm in the drawing, he had photographs and drawings of elm trees on file. Every conceivable subject for use in a political cartoon was carefully filed in one of the number of source files of subject material that Mr. Seibel maintained.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
