Description: A kiwi wearing an All Black jersey and a chef's hat waves farewell through the window to an aeroplane labelled '56 'Boks'. He is in a kitchen surrounded by cooking paraphernalia and examines a recipe book entitled 'Recipes for 1960'. Context: Refers to the 1956 All Black tour in which the All Blacks won 3 of the 4 test matches. After the 4-0 hammering at the hands of their great rivals in 1949, the victory in the fourth and final test at Eden Park was received with euphoria by All Blacks fans, and national pride was restored. The 4th test match was on 1 September, so the date of the cartoon, ie the date of the Springbok departure, is a guess. Quantity: 1 original cartoon(s). Physical Description: Ink and letratone on paper 460 x 380 mm

Description: As the manager marches grimly into his office two of his employees comments to each other that it looks as though his trip was not too successful and that he had hoped that the joint venture with Australia would have shown a better return than a 19-all draw. Refers to the All Blacks 19-all draw with Australia in 1988. Captain David Kirk led the All Blacks through one of their most dominant periods as they remained unbeaten from 1987 to 1990 except for the 19-all blemish. The boss's 'business trip' was obviously a trip to Australia to watch the game. Quantity: 1 original cartoon(s). Physical Description: Ink, crayon and letratone on paper, 320 x 485 mm Finding Aids: Photocopies available in Pictorial Reference Service.
