PUCK, New York, Feb. 7, 1883 

* 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 very desired for their displayability. This issue has as its political cartoons:
front page: "An Apparatus By Means of Which Suicides Can Get the Better of the 'Penal Code' ."
double-page centerfold: "Our Imitative 'Aristocracy.' "."
back page: "The Protectors of Our Industries."
Complete in 16 pages, 14 by  10 1/2 inches, generally nice.
