Puck, v. 69, no. 1788
“Thumbs down!”
A skeleton labeled “Death,” as a gladiator, stands over “The Sick.” Before giving the death stroke, the skeleton looks to the spectators seated in a section identified as “Anti-Vivisectionists,” who, holding their pets close, give the “thumbs down” signal. The emblem on their banner shows a hand about to snuff the flame on a lamp labeled “Progress.”
