It's a proven fact that cartoons help to bridge the communications gap between the readers and
the publication that is printing the cartoon! Speakers and presentation specialists use them in their
Powerpoint slides, editors and publishers use them in their newsletters, authors and writers will put
a cartoon into a chapter heading to pique the reader's interest or to keep a child's attention level at
a certain point throughout the book. Over the years, well known magazines have contributed to
the overall popularity of the single panel gag cartoon. Readers of trade journals and specialty
publications flip through the back pages to look at the cartoons first, because they need their "fix"
of humor. Dentists have even acquired complete collections of dental cartoons to print onto a special
wallpaper covering to adorn their waiting room walls. The only aspect limiting you to licensing any
specific cartoon is your imagination! |

There is no finite price for cartoons. No price structure truly identifies the value of an image when used for print. The real value is how the image is used. For instance, a cartoon used in a book with a print run of 300K has a far greater value than if used in a book with a print run of 100 thousand copies.
If the cartoon on the left is used in a PowerPoint presentation that is attended by 200 people, it is valued at a greater usage price than if it were shown at a presentation of 50 attendees. The key word being usage. Being insightful as to how you use the image and supplying as much background information in advance of a price quote, will |
assist greatly.
