Label TextKnown today primarily for his instrumental role in the Armory Show of 1913, Walt Kuhn also created comics for newspapers and humor magazines to supplement his income as an artist. This cartoon was probably part of a bird-themed series that he drew at times between 1905 and 1914.Thomas Starling Sullivant
