Description: This website Drawn on Stone: Political Prints from the 1830s and 1840s explores American political cartooning during the tumultuous Jacksonian era. It features thirty rare satirical lithographs recently acquired by the Cartoon Research Library with help from the William J. Studer endowment. This extraordinary collection illustrates the surge in the creation and distribution of political cartoon broadsides made possible by the relative ease and speed of the new printmaking process of lithography. Several cartoons not found in other major print collections are included.

Description: November 29, 2004 marked the 75th Anniversary of Richard E. Byrd's historical flight over the South Pole. This was the first time that flight over the Pole had been attempted, and up to this point in time, only two parties had ever reached the South Pole and only one survived the trip back. Nevertheless, Byrd was buoyed from his successes of the North Pole Flight in 1926 and his Transatlantic Flight in 1927. Antarctica was the next logical achievement. This was to be the largest and the costliest expedition in the history of the exploration of Antarctica to that time, with costs ultimately reaching more than 1 million dollars. This web exhibit documents that historic flight. NOTE: any issues with site navigation/missing graphics existed in the pre-Archive-It captured site.

Description: Although he is hardly remembered today, at one time in the early twentieth century Hendrik Willem van Loon (1882-1944) was an international celebrity. It is difficult to find parallels to him: he was at once an author who also illustrated his own books (as well as the works of others). He was an intellectual and an elitist who nevertheless wrote for children and the general public. A prolific writer, he was also a radio personality, whose larger-than-life persona would have thrived on television had he lived long enough to see it. A professor of history at Cornell and Antioch, van Loon is best known for his prodigious output of popular histories, many written for children. His The Story of Mankind was the first winner of the Newberry Medal in 1922. His books were praised by both educators and professional historians alike, however, other professors were loudly dismissive of van Loon, both for being a mere popularizer and for writing simplistic interpretations of the past.
