    Description

    Here's an original Puck Magazine cover from March 12, 1890 that measures approx. 10 1/2" by 14".  Depicted is a stereotypical Chicago Irishman getting pinned by World's Fair burdens as he screams "HELP!".  The artist's name C.J. Taylor appears in the bottom left corner.  Reverse side has a cartoon and comments.  Toning around the edges and some discoloration due to age but overall it's in good shape, ready for framing.  Guaranteed original.  Thanks for looking at this auction.
