The New Yorker presents the best of the cartoon caption contest. Write your own captions for the top 100 cartoon contests, then see the best, and all the rest.
Since its inception in 1925, the New Yorker has been world famous for its cartoons. Not surprisingly, the cartoon caption contest has quickly become one of the magazine's most popular features. Located on the back page, the contest invites readers to craft their own captions for the weekly cartoon. Thousands enter each week, but only one wins.
This entertaining collection, the first of six books in an exclusive series with Andrews McMeel Publishing, presents the top 100 caption contests, with the winners, the runners-up, and everyone in between (available on-line), plus fun facts and stats about who is entering and why. Learn how the finalists came up with their captions, and how their lives changed after winning. Discover the inner workings of the caption contest and then see if you have what it takes to be a successful cartoon caption writer.

New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest
The book is set up so the reader sees the uncaptioned cartoon, may try thinking up their own captions, and then turn the page to see the winning caption and runners-up. I personally would rather have seen twice as many captioned cartoons instead of the uncaptioned ones, but the given format certainly captures the spirit of the contest well. Occasional sidebars add comments about how language in captions differs from typical English and comments from a few winners. The list of frequently-used words with each cartoon, on the other hand, merely distracts. I was impressed that the cartoons have not become dated over the last decade.
