Politics How To Avoid a Sex Scandal 1987 Orig Cartoon Art Jack Higgins Gary Hart
This is the original artwork by Jack Higgins for his Chicago Sun-Times editorial cartoon dated 1987. The artwork gives "3 Precautions recommended for safe sex". On the back of the artwork it is date stamped May 12 '87 6:44pm, so it was probably published in the next day's Chicago Sun-Times. This would probably refer to the May 3, 1987 Miami Herald allegation that Gary Hart was having an affair. At the time Gary Hart was considered the
favorite Democratic candidate for President. Several days after the Miami Herald allegation, Gary Hart dropped out of the race. The artwork measures approx. 12-1/2" x 17-5/8". This is the original artwork that Jack Higgins created. The artwork is in good condition - there are a few small marks/smudges/light dirt on the art - there is some light dirt along the edges - there is some small creasing to the tips of the corners - in the upper right corner there are a couple stray marks in black marker - on the back there are some editor notes some light dirt - on the back there is some ink migration from other artwork that was stored beneath it. A NICE, ONE-OF-A-KIND PIECE OF EDITORIAL ARTWORK THAT WOULD LOOK GREAT FRAMED! When packed, this will ship at the 2 pound rate - check the postage calculator.
