George Price (cartoonist)

George Price (June 9, 1901 – January 12, 1995[1]) was a United States cartoonist who was born in Fort Lee, New Jersey.

After doing advertising artwork in his youth, Price started doing cartoons for The New Yorker magazine in 1929. He continued contributing to the New Yorker well into his eighties, displaying a talent for both graphic innovation (many of his cartoons consisted of a single, unending line) and for a wit that somehow combined the small issues of domestic life with a topical sensibility.
