Hitler; Man of the Year, Time Magazine, Jan. 2, 1939.  
Photographed at work, image-heavy. Most people react, understandably and sensibly, with horror when learning that Hitler was chosen by Time magazine as Man of the Year, 1939. I think the cover says it all, really.





















I only had about 10 minutes to spare when I took these. Alas, I did not get the name of the artist responsible for the cover. It has a messy, sketchy quality to it and is beautifully grotesque (very fitting, of course).

It really is, and you're welcome!

And you're right about the artist's name! I googled him and found this portrait of him (a seemingly colorful fellow) : http://www.aaa.si.edu/collections/searchimages/images/image_2426_3465.htm

His work is rather political, yet darkly humorous:
