Title	State of the union exhibit; [n.d.]
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. Ronald Reagan and a man labeled "Demos." (Tip O'Neill) are dressed as painters (smock, tie, and beret) in an art gallery where an exhibition of framed paintings hangs. They stand under an overhead sign that reads, "State of the Union exhibit." Reagan smiles and stands tall next to his painting, a happy landscape with house, tree, singing bird, and bright sun. O'Neill droops and appears sad next to his painting, a stormy landscape under a dark sky. The house in this painting is being struck by lightning and blown away by a tornado. Other paintings can be seen in part in the background.
