Puck stands between two types of Americans depicted on large sheets of paper. On the left are “The Jingoes” identified as “Reid, Frye, Hoar, [and] Lodge” among others. Reid carries a flag that states “We Will Stand No Nonsense from Tyrannical England!!! Our Blood is Always Boiling.” Atop a tall pedestal is an effigy of John Bull with an eagle labeled “U.S.” perched on his chest. On the right are “The Anglo-Maniacs” who prostrate themselves before everything British, such as “English Clothes, English Manners, English Fiction, English Lord, English Actor, English Butler,” even “‘is Royal ‘ighness.”
