From: Lodge, Nevile Sidney 1918-1989 :[Archive of original cartoons for the Evening Post and Sports Post, 1941 to 1988]

By: Lodge, Nevile Sidney, 1918-1989; Evening Post (Wellington, N.Z.)

Reference: B-136-594

Description: The scene shows two sinister-looking intelligence agents, each with a black moustache and dark glasses and carrying a briefcase chained to his wrist. One of the men has a copy of the New York Times under his arm and they are walking past a door with the words 'Security Intelligence Service, Director' on it. Outside the door, attached to the wall, is a bolted box labelled 'suggestion box'. The man with the newspaper whispers about any scraps of information being welcome - perhaps he is considering raiding the suggestion box. The cartoon refers to the banning of New Zealand from a top-level intelligence committee which met weekly in London, apparently as a reprisal against Prime Minister, David Lange's ban on nuclear ship visits to New Zealand. The committee was Whitehall's top body for collating and analysing intelligence reports from around the world and because the contribution of the American CIA Chief of Station was so crucial to the meeting this probably played an important part in banning the New Zealanders. Quantity: 1 original cartoon(s). Physical Description: Ink, crayon and letratone on paper, 335 x 389 mm Finding Aids: Photocopies available in Pictorial Reference Service.
