FYI the creator of Dr. Seuss was as big of an unhinged leftist fag as you can imagine. I wouldn't be so quick to celebrate his work just because it's being canceled. Let them eat their own.

He was also an early environmentalist. See The King's Stilts

Funny coincidence. My wife works special ed with a student and the teacher just so happened to have the class read one of his books they just banned yesterday. Nobody really gave a shit, but this is what happens when you give the fringe activists too much power and big businesses (marketing and HR really) have been doing that at breakneck speed.

Has anybody stopped to consider the printing process at the time?

The colors and pixel sizes weren't much better than black-and-white. There was no room for subtlety like anything approaching skin tones. And getting a good brown next to a heavy black line was very hard to do.

I always thought the only reason Superman's hair was black and his eyes were blue, was because black ink was easy, and blue was the only color that didn't fade to black in the smaller frames of a comic book.
