FREE EBOOK: Zim's Cartoons and Caricatures Part 01 of 20

Zims Cartoons and Caricatures
This is the first of twenty posts where we plan to post a complete set of high resolution scans of Zim's Cartoons & Caricatures, or Making The World Laugh (1910). These 100 pages are packed with great cartoons, helpful drawing tips, technical information and business advice for the aspiring cartoonist. Most importantly, Zim passes along his unique philosophy of life, and offers a shining example of how an artistic career as a caricaturist can be incorporated into a person's lifestyle. At the time this book was written, Zim had thirty years of experience under his belt, and had attained the highest level in his field. For more information, see the Zim's Cartoons & Caricatures page.

Every week, we will post five more pages, but they will be deleted from our server after 30 days, so download them while you can. To save the images to your hard drive, right click on the image (or CONTROL click if you are using a Mac) and select "SAVE IMAGE AS". To see all of the currently available pages, see the ZIMEBOOK Tag.

The zim books are really fantastic. They are more then drawing tips, they are an artist philosophy. The way they were written makes one feel likes he is talking to you directly and understands your good and bad habits of an artist and tells you where to go from there. I also enjoy his stories that give insight to the American culture of 1910. it's also interesting to note because his advice is still relevant to today that we as people are basically not that different from years long past, which may in fact give this book a deeper appreciation and observation of overall humanity.
