EDITORS COMMENTS
Old Reliable! American cartoon, 1938, by Clifford Berryman captures the essence of political criticism during President Roosevelt's era. This thought-provoking print serves as a reminder of the contentious debates surrounding FDR's New Deal spending policies. With his signature top hat and wand in hand, Berryman portrays Roosevelt as an enigmatic magician delving into mysticism to solve America's economic woes. The cartoon reflects the early skepticism towards the Democratic Party and their political acts aimed at reviving the nation from the Great Depression. Through clever symbolism and satire, Berryman questions whether these unconventional measures will truly bring prosperity or merely perpetuate uncertainty. In this artwork, Franklin Delano Roosevelt is depicted amidst a group of men who represent various interests affected by his policies. The artist skillfully weaves together elements of occultism and mysticism to emphasize how some viewed these initiatives with suspicion and apprehension. Berryman's illustration stands as a testament to free expression in democracy while highlighting public sentiment towards government intervention during challenging times. It serves as a historical artifact that encapsulates both admiration for FDR's leadership and concerns about excessive spending. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to delve into America's past, sparking discussions about politics, economics, and societal values that continue to resonate today.
