March 22, 1893

PUCK, New York, March 22, 1893 

* Color political prints

Puck was America's first successful humor magazine of colorful cartoon caricatures and political satire, publishing from 1871 until 1918. It was also the first to successfully adopt full color lithography printing for a weekly publication. The color prints are much desired for their displayability. This issue has as its political cartoons:
front page: "He's Getting Worse and Worse."
double-page centerfold: "Grand Finale of an Unintentionally Comic Opera."
back page: a 6 panel series: "Mr. Callback's First After-Dinner Speech, and Why He Didn't Make It."
Sixteen pages, very nice, clean condition.
