Comment:
Taylor’s cartoons are instantly recognizable by the exaggerated eyes of the characters. His sense of humor tended to be at once jaded and suggestive. Because The New Yorker, catered to a more well-read and open minded segment of the public than, say The Saturday Evening Pos cartoons such as this and their creator flourished there.
