Book - Rejection Collection Vol 2: Cartoons You Never Saw ... in The New Yorker

Edited by Matthew Diffee. This listing is for Volume Two of two. Hardback, 2007, 300 pages. This book is coffee-table sized at 8-1/2" x 10-1/2". Excellent pre-owned condition. The dust cover has very minor cosmetic wear, a teeny rip on the back (see pics, it may not even be noticeable). Spine in great shape and the pages are all clean and intact. No torn or missing pages, no dog-ears, no scribbles. "Each week about fifty New Yorker cartoonists submit ten ideas, yielding five hundred single-panel gags for no more than twenty spots in the magazine. From the artists' stacks of all-time favorite rejects, Diffee handpicked the standouts — the cream of the crap — and created The Rejection Collection, a place where good ideas go when they die. Too risqué, silly, or weird for The New Yorker, the cartoons in this book will appeal to fans of The New Yorker...and to anyone with a slightly sick sense of humor. Includes black-and-white photos of each artist and handwritten questionnaires that introduce their quirky characters."
