Cor van Deutekom In the period before World War II, the draftsman Cor van Deutekom made political cartoons for newspapers from the Dutch East Indies. He was a journalist for the magazine d'Orient. He also provided advertising drawings for Bataafche Petroleum in Surabaya, General Motors and Koninklijke Paketvaart Maatschappij in Batavia. During the Second World War he was associated with the Nenasu, the Dutch National Socialist Publishers. As a passionate National Socialist, he illustrated the work of writers such as Max Blokzijl and Jan Rudolf Hommes. In December 1942, he succeeded Peter Beekman as the draftsman of the 'Rare, Maar Ware Commentaren' page from the NSB weekly Volk en Vaderland.
