Exercised My Stock Options

A bit of wealth humor by the masterful Mort Gerberg. This original, hand drawn cartoon was published in the New Yorker on July 12, 1999.  Mort is a prolific cartoonist.  His work for the New Yorker spans more than five decades.   Ink, ink wash, and white-out accents on 11" x 14" heavy card stock.  The gentleman on the left is a replacement drawing that was cut and pasted onto the original, as was the second gentleman's handwritten sign.  The piece is taped to a protective tissue cover.  New Yorker production sticker on the reverse side.  The cartoon was stored in a manila folder with the magazine tear sheet.  Excellent condition. Nice clean lines and a plus for the stockbroker in your life!
