What it is

Charles Lewis Bartholomew’s pen cartoon Of Course Golf Will Not Be Allowed, printed in the Minneapolis Journal on 19 February 1901.

Why it matters

Bart drew the front-page cartoon for the Journal for decades; here the fight is over golf on public ground.

What to notice

The policeman’s hand is on the golfer’s shoulder and his badge reads like a city ordinance.

Every new course started as an argument.
