Description
Garry Trudeau "Texas Abortion Law" Doonesbury Daily 3-13-2012 Comic Strip NFT Digital Art Print Original Art #1/1 and Physical Print (Garry Trudeau, 2022). "The infamous Texas sonogram bill was intended to shame women who sought abortions, so I did my best to shame those responsible for it. The topic was so incendiary that the strip was removed for the week from some 65 newspapers - the most ever. The good news was that not a single client actually cancelled the strip. I had treated the subject with the seriousness it deserved, and I suppose I'd built enough trust through the years to earn a pass. I've always assumed most editors make decisions about what's suitable for their comics pages in good faith. It's called editing, not censorship, and it's important for creators like me to say so." - Garry TrudeauAn original NFT celebrating the 50th anniversary of Doonesbury, minted by Heritage Auctions on behalf of artist Garry Trudeau.
Also included is a 17.25" x 7.25" black and white physical print that is titled and signed in the lower margin. In Excellent condition.
