Political Cartoons, 1930-1950 and undated
This series consists of political cartoons that document Tydings' long career in the Senate. In most cases, cartoonists, including Gib Crockett, Richard Yardley, Herblock, Jim Berryman, and C. K. Berryman, gave these to Tydings as souvenirs, and they are often signed with personal notes from the artists. These cartoons appeared in a wide range of newspapers, such as the Baltimore Sun, Washington Post, and the Evening Star. Topics covered include the New Deal, McCarthyism, and World War II.
