| Description | World War II editorial cartoon shows Santa Claus looking in surprise at four Christmas boots that have been tacked to the globe. They are labeled "I'll take a hunk of Europe," "I'll take Finland and maybe Romania," "I'll take control of the Balkans," and "I'll take China." By Christmas 1939, the Soviet Union had invaded Finland, and the Axis countries of Germany, Italy, and Japan were threatening or attacking Europe, the Balkans, and China. Herblock reflects the fears of the United States as it watches these aggressive moves. |
