Description
Inscribed and signed with his pseudonym by Bob Sine on the front endpaper to American Socialist writer Leo Huberman.
First edition.
French cartoonist Maurice Sinet [b. 1928] used the pseudonym Bob Sine. A series of drawings of cats was his breakthrough work. He then began working as a political cartoonist for L'Express, and later started his own publication Sine Massacre. A controversial anarchist, his anti-colonialism, anti-capitalism and anti-clericalism often got him into trouble. He was accused of anti-Semitism and fired for an article and cartoons in the magazine Charlie Hebdo referring to the marriage of Jean Sarkozy [son of then French President Nicholas Sarkozy] to a Jewish heiress. In 2010 he won a lawsuit against the publisher for wrongful termination.
