Virgil Parch Part One; VIP in the 1940’s
1943 – 1949
It would come as no surprise that the largest folder in the Cartoon Clip File is labeled VIP,
Virgil Partch was a huge sensation when he began appearing in the pages of Collier’s in 1942. Over the ensuing years his cartoons appeared in every major magazine. His cartoons adorned many ads newspapers and magazines. He was written up n Newsweek and Time as the phenomenon he certainly was. Although he contributed only a few cartoons to The New Yorker, he did sell them gags for Peter Arno, Charles Addams and others.
Over the ensuing years Partch became one of the most prolific and influential cartoonists of his time.
Here is small sample of some this prolific cartoonists during the first decade of his incredible career.
