Straight Herblock

Herb Block, the iconic Washington Post editorial cartoonist, collected his sharp, Pulitzer Prize-winning work in Straight Herblock, a single 1964 volume from Simon and Schuster. The book gathers his most pointed political cartoons from the early 1960s, skewering figures from Richard Nixon to Fidel Castro with his signature blend of ink and outrage. It stands as a distilled, essential snapshot of a master satirist at the height of his influence during the Cold War era.
