Carl Rose (1903 – 1971) was an American cartoonist whose work appeared in The New Yorker, Popular Science, The Saturday Evening Post, and elsewhere.
Rose created one of the most famous New Yorker cartoons, published December 8, 1928, with a caption by E. B.
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).
