The Modern Graphic History Library is dedicated to acquiring, preserving, and promoting distinguished works of modern illustration and pictorial graphic culture while also promoting sustained academic consideration of those materials.  Comprised of original art and printed material, the collection’s range extends from book, magazine, and advertising illustration to graphic novels, comics, poster design, pictorial information design, and animation. It contains substantial holdings by Al Parker, Robert Andrew Parker, and Robert Weaver, as well as the Charles Craver collection of tear sheets of approximately 60 major illustrators from the 1920s-40s.  

We are located at the West Campus Library, 1/2 mile west of the Danforth Campus, close to the Forsyth Metrolink stop.
