[Jimmy Carter and his staff], Unidentified photographer
ca. 1980
The archive contains numerous letters from readers expressing offense when the Washington Star published a large Oliphant panel cartoon of an imagined Jimmy Carter White House with stereotypical redneck adornments: tires hanging from trees, cars with their hoods open on the lawn, and an outhouse in the back. Four years later, he published a similar piece called "Foah Moah Yeahs," adding insult to injury. Carter and his staff documented their delight for posterity when viewing the new work. |
