His work also appeared in Playboy, Punch and Fast Company, among other publications. He was a signature artist whose rounded, elegant, sparsely detailed style evoked both the traditional world of a James Thurber and the contemporary sensibility of a Roz Chast. Barsotti's work features a simple repertory including a nameless, lovable pooch and a monarch whose kingdom consists of a guard and a telephone. His work in comic strips included:
In 1992, his dog character was adopted as a logo by the office supplies company Niceday Ltd, which was taken over the French company Guilbert, leading to the nickname "Niceday pup" in the United Kingdom.[6] On February 26, 1996, the pup also appeared on one of three United Kingdom postage stamps featuring Barsotti's cartoons. PoliticsBarsotti openly opposed the Vietnam War. In 1972, he ran for Congress as the Democratic nominee against incumbent Larry Winn in the third district of Johnson County, Kansas, but faced heavy Republican opposition and dropped out of the race.[5][7] In a 1986 interview Barsotti said of his campaign:
It should also be noted that his entire campaign staff dropped him and became the Wyandotte County, Kansas City, Kansas staff for the McGovern campaign when Mr. Barsotti refused to do any campaign functions. DeathBarsotti died of brain cancer on June 16, 2014, at his home in Kansas City, Missouri, aged 80.[8] AwardsBarsotti received the National Cartoonist Society's Gag Cartoon Award for 1988 for his work.
