The Hebrew caricaturist
Kariel Gardosh, known as "Dosh", was probably Israel's most famous caricaturist. Like his fellow Hungarian friends
, Yosef "Tommy" Lapid and
Efraim Kishon, he worked for many years in
Ma'ariv, the Israeli daily, and were known as the "Hungarian Mafia".
"Dosh" illustrated many books -- and interstingly, some chess books as well. These included not only
Shaul Hon's
Pt'ichot Be'Sachmat [Chess Openings], as noted in a previous post, but also at least two other books:
Ha'Melech Mat Yechi Ha'Melech, Olympiadot Ha'Studentim [The King is Mated, Long Live the King -- the Students' Olympiads] (1970, Tel Aviv: Emanuel Lasker Chess Club) and
Ha'Siyum Be'Sachmat [The Ending in Chess] (Tel Aviv: Shach, 1961).
