On display is the original of one of Mr. Reid's most famous cartoons, "Article Ten Wants Your Boy," which is regarded as having influenced public sentiment against the League of Nations following World War I.
Another work in the exhibit is the reproduction of a sketch of Claire Windsor, by Mr. Reid, which he made in 1931 from an image transmitted by television in the early days of television experimentation. Mr. Reid was the first man to make a sketch of Carrie Nation for publication purposes. This sketch was made at the request of Governor Stanley, in his office, shortly after Carrie had come by a black eye when she got in the way of the clenched fist of the wife of a saloonkeeper whose place she was hacking up with her famous hatchet. The original of this sketch is in possession of the Kansas State Historical Society in Topeka.
Mr. Reid was one of the early pioneers in the encouragement of use of art work in advertising. This is illustrated by some of his drawings about 1890 when he was associated with the Clyde (Kan.) Republican. These examples were given to the Journalism Historical Center by Harry Valentine, publisher of the Clay Center Dispatch.
The grant is one of approximately 400 for lecturing and research abroad made to American teachers under the Fulbright act.
