Negro Americas Favorite Cartoonist Thats what Langston Hughes called Ollie Harrington, whose cartoons and comic strips were a staple of Americas Black newspapers for decades starting in the 1930s. In his single-panel series Dark Laughter, Harrington brought out the vibrancy of Harlem life in its day, while serving some cutting looks at the politics of the time.At the heart of Dark Laughter is Bootsie, a cunning, conning, girl-chasing neer-do-well who is nonetheless beloved in his Harlem community... if often reluctantly. Bootsie is both the victim of the worlds troubles and a frequent cause of them for others.Heres a collection of prime cartoons from the mid-1950s, drawn with the detailed joy that only Ol Harrington (who also worked as Oliver W. Harrington) could bring, finally available to a larger audience.Book specifications:Dimensions: 279 x 216Author: Ollie HarringtonCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2021Publishing Month: 12Pages: 156Language: EnglishPublisher: About ComicsWeight: 376 g
