Rose's famous "I say it's spinach" cartoon

Rose created one of the most famous New Yorker cartoons, published December 8, 1928, with a caption by

I Say It's Spinach (And The Hell With It)".) Elizabeth Hawes
adopted it for her critique of the clothing design industry: Fashion is Spinach (1938).

Rose illustrated Bennett Cerf's best-selling book Try and Stop Me and its sequel Shake Well Before Using. Rose also illustrated Have Tux, Will Travel, the supposed autobiography of actor Bob Hope (actually ghost-written by journalist Pete Martin).

Between 1958 and 1961 he also illustrated the educational comic strip Our New Age, written by Dr. Athelstan Spilhaus.[1]
