Comments and Context
Reproduced from the original artwork, this cartoon was probably drawn for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch or New York World, both Pulitzer newspapers. Alfred Joseph Frueh eventually drew some of the most striking and popular theatrical caricatures in American art, notably for Life and The New Yorker.
