PUCK, New York, Jan. 11, 1893  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: "A Final Autopsy."
double-page centerfold: "What! Another One?"
back page: This is a  6 panel cartoon: "The Immigration Question."
Sixteen pages, the back page has an archival repair on the reverse, the tear almost unnoticeable in the cartoon, otherwise good condition.
