Synopsis
All cartoonists are geniuses, wrote John Updike, "but Arnold Roth especially so. He's an American original; irreverent, tireless, manicky, and secretly efficient... his work jumps with joy." You won't find better proof of this argument than this book, a generous, career-spanning collection of Roth's best cartoons and painted illustrations, originally created to serve as a catalog for a long-overdue gallery exhibition of this master cartoonist's work. From his early cartoons through his eye-popping and imaginative color illustrations for such magazines as Playboy, Esquire, TV Guide and Sports Illustrated, this book will delight any fan of superior cartooning.

Review
Arnold Roth has become one of the best known and most beloved cartoonists of the 20th century...one of the most celebrated cartoonists working today.--Brian Heater
Synopsis
This lavish coffee-table style art book is the accompaniment to the travelling Arnold Roth exhibition, a magnificent celebration of 50 years of cartooning. The book showcases almost 100 pieces of Roth's work, drawn over the last 50 years, and is printed in an oversized format featuring black-and-white cartoons and strips. It also features an abundance of Roth's gorgeous, vivid watercolour cartoon paintings, all of which appeared in disparate magazines over the years and none of which are readily available to collectors and fans.
