The Complete Cartoons of The New Yorker speakers

I've seen many cartoon books in many forms, colors and weights, but what I last saw on a web page was quite amazing. You can do many things with (cartoon) books, but this one is very creative.

The Complete Cartoons om The New Yorker is a big and heavy book indeed and for that reason suitable for the job, but I'll keep my copy as it is.

"More than a book, this is a bona fide publishing event. The largest-ever collection of "New Yorker" cartoons features the best of every decade in book form, plus two easy-to-browse CDs--Windows and Macintosh compatible--with every cartoon ever published in the magazine--more than 68,000 of themSince its founding in the 1920s, "The New Yorker" has had a profound cultural impact on the country and the world, and has almost singlehandedly elevated the cartoon to an art form. For the first time ever, EVERY cartoon ever published in "The New Yorker" is collected in one place. Accompanying the cartoons in the book, several thousand of them organized chronologically, are essays by eminent "New Yorker" writers reflecting on the life and times (and sense of humor) of each successive decade. Additionally, each decade includes profiles and mini-portfolios of the cartoonists who made their marks on the era, from Peter Arno and Charles Addams to Bruce Eric Kaplan and Roz Chast. "Theme" features cover such subjects as Drinking, The Depression, and Politics.The two accompanying CDs feature every cartoon ever published in the magazine in a format that is accessible on any home computer and is browsable by date, cartoonist, subject, and more. This groundbreaking book, several years in the making, has been lovingly compiled by current "New Yorker" cartoon editor (and respected cartoonist and author) Robert Mankoff, and the foreword is by David Remnick, the magazine's esteemed editor."
