Magazine with 2 color prints...



Item # 561304

July 27, 1892

JUDGE magazine, New York, July 27, 1892  Judge magazine was founded in 1881 by a group of artists, headed by James Albert Wales, who left the staff of the popular comic weekly Puck. The magazine featured bold satire and good political drawing with chromolithographic front and back covers and center spread.

After a strong start, the magazine found itself struggling to compete with its very similar rival Puck.  Puck finally expired in 1918, while Judge continued to thrive into the 1930's and beyond.

The color prints are very desired for their displayability. This issue has as its political cartoons:

ftpg: "Puck - Midsummer Number"
doublepage centerfold: "The Task of the Danaides"

This issue is complete in 16 pages, measures 10 1/2 by 14 inches and is in good condition.
