PUCK, New York, Jan. 14, 1885 

* 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: "A Civil Service Reform Version of An Old Fable."
double-page centerfold: "Puck's Political Hunting Ground--How He Has Made Game of the Politicians."
back page: "Mischievous Moles."
Sixteen pages, a bit of light dirtiness at the margins, a few small & discrete archival mends at the edges.
