Louis Jamme: Men Working

It's rare to see five original cartoons by Louis Jamme (1913-1949) come to the art market all at once. The first of them reminds us that labor and management perhaps share a certain curiosity in common.
"Some gentlemen from the excavation around the corner, they thought they'd like to watch you work for a change."

Note:  Both sides at the bargaining table would like to know where this original cartoon was published. Please write or leave a comment if you know.

Louis Jamme, who lived only to his mid-thirties, was a talented cartoonist who contributed to many publications. Today marks his very first appearance on this blog as we begin to look at the five original drawings of his that just came to the auction block.
