The Iranian
These cartoons are from 1900 up to about 1917 -- the earliest examples
of political cartoons. They have been reprinted in Seyr-e tahavollaat-e
70 saal kaarikaator dar iran (The evolution of Iranian cartoons in the
past 70 years) by Hamid Saher (Atropat publishing, Iran, 1998). They include
cartoons from Molla Nasreddin, Azarbaijan, Hasharat-ol-Arz, and Nahid
satirical papers.
