New out of the box, and out-of-print "Zagat" Drawings and Paintings Copyright 1972. Jewish Life on New York's Lower East Side, 1912 - 1962.
On March 30, 1912 the front page of New York's-language daily: Where be it (Truth) carried a cartoon, signed Zagat, titled "When poor marksmen use bad gunpowder," depicting a large cannon, marked "Grand jury," aimed at a woman with two children clinging to her. At the back of the cannon, which has misfired, are William Randolph Hearst and others of his camp. On April 3, 1912, the cartoon of the day, signed Zagat, has Hurst climbing up a wall to hang up a fifth portrait-the others being William Jay Gaynor, Woodrow Wilson, Theodore Roosevelt, and New York's reform leader William Jay Garnor.
