Purchasers of “Kultur in Cartoons” may be interested to know that this present work is a companion volume to “Raemaekers’ Cartoons,” issued in 1916. “Raemaekers’ Cartoons” includes many of the artist’s earlier work, dealing particularly with the Belgian inferno. The two volumes are alike in size and form, and together constitute a thoroughly representative collection of Raemaekers’ drawings.

A year has passed since the first volume of Raemaekers’ work (“Raemaekers’ Cartoons,” Century Co.), was published in the United States.
At that time Raemaekers was practically unknown in this country, just as he was unknown in England and France until January, 1916, when his work was first exhibited in the British Capital.
The story of Raemaekers’ reception in London and Paris has been written in the introduction to “Raemaekers’ Cartoons.”
When his cartoons began to reach America toward the end of 1916 this country was neutral. It is with peculiar satisfaction, therefore, that I base this brief foreword upon press extracts published prior to America’s participation in the war.
