- E. Gombrich and E. Kris, Caricature, Harmondsworth: Penguin Books, 1940 p.27. Given his interest in irrational approaches, there is probably more of Kris in this quote than Gombrich. For a more fulsome exploration of the comic by Kris, see: Ernst Kris, Psychoanalytic Explorations in Art, Madison, Connecticut: International Universities Press, (1952) 1988, pp.173–239.
- Baudelaire wrote three major essays on caricature: De l'essence du rire et généralement du comique dans les arts plastiques, Quelques caricaturistes fran¸ais and Quelques caricaturistes étrangers. For a summary and sometimes unconvincing analysis of these see: Michele Hannoosh, Baudelaire and Caricature: From the Comic to an Art of Modernity, Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1992.
- Joan Kerr, ‘The exhibition and the archive’, Australians in Black and White, Sydney: State Library of New South Wales, 1999, preface.
- Kerr, Artists and Cartoonists..., p.3
- Marguerite Mahood, The Loaded Line: Australian Political Caricature 1788–1901, Melbourne: Melbourne University Press, 1973. This book remains an unequaled achievement in dealing with the nineteenth-century Australian cartoons and caricature. Incidently, an early drawing by Mahood was included in the State Library exhibition.
- Stephen Hess and Milton Kaplan, The Ungentlemanly Art: A History of American Political Cartoons, New York: Macmillan, 1968 pp.12–15. There are several later editions and reprints of this book and of Australian interest, the dust-jacket illustration of the first edition, at least, features an 1874 caricature of the American cartoonist Frank Bellew by Livingstone Hopkins.
- Joseph Pennell, The Adventures of an Illustrator, Boston: Little, Brown and Co., 1925, p.248.
- Livingstone Hopkins, On The Hop!, Sydney: Bulletin Newspaper Co., 1904.
- I should declare my special interest in Eugene Montagu Scott as he is the subject of my research for a PhD degree at the University of Sydney.
- Kerr, Artists and Cartoonists…., p.70.
- Jonathan King, The Other Side of the Coin: A Cartoon History of Australia, Stanmore: Cas-sell (Australia), (1976) 1979; and Jonathan King, Stop Laughing This is Serious: A Social History of Australia in Cartoons, Stanmore: Cassell (Australia), 1978. Considering their format, the production of these books was possibly inspired by Michael Wynn Jones, The Cartoon History of Britain, London: Tom Stacey Ltd, 1971.
