[Rarebooks] FS: Original Rube Goldberg Cartoon: BREAK THAT BOTTLENECK

[Charles Agvent]

GOLDBERG, Rube. "Break That Bottleneck": ORIGINAL SIGNED CARTOON. . The 
drawing in heavy pencil and chalk is of a bulldozer titled "Highway 
Construction" ramming into and breaking the neck of a bottle containing 
a number of cars and trucks packed into it. The image, SIGNED by 
Goldberg, is 11" x 12" on a 14-1/2" x 18-1/2" sheet. It more than likely 
was done for a newspaper as it has reproduction directions in the margin 
beneath the image, and while it is not dated the subject matter and 
style of cars indicates it was accomplished sometime during the 1950s. 
An uncommon opportunity to acquire an original piece of art from the 
creator of the famous Goldberg contraptions. Near Fine. 	$650.00
