In The Catbird Seat - 11x17 Newspaper Negative by Tom Engelhardt

'In the catbird seat'

This is the original newspaper negative by political cartoonist Tom Engelhardt featuring the cartoon printed in The St. Louis Post-Dispatch on August 12, 1986.  In the cartoon, two cats labeled 'Vince' and 'Gene' are fighting under a tree with 'Bill' cardinal perched on a money sack labeled 'New $tadium.'   This is a one of a kind item and the proceeds help benefit The State Historical Society of Missouri's Engelhardt Cartoon Collection.
