Note:  Another personalized cartoon book from the incomparable George Booth to publisher Lucretia J. Weed has been archived here. This one blogger's fancy is to post images of other books personalized by Charles Saxon (although I certainly would consider adding other New Yorker cartoonists to the mix).
