What you’re looking at

This page contains three satirical cartoons from *Judge* magazine: 1. **Top left**: "Making a business man of a lawyer" - depicts a woman in bed instructing a man, mocking the blurred line between legal and illicit business practices. 2. **Top right**: A man in formal dress with the caption "He worked for it and I got it" - likely satirizing inheritance or nepotism in business/politics. 3. **Bottom**: "The Prophecy" - shows a figure posting a sign reading "NO JEWS WANTED—HAMILTON BOSS" at the Grand Union Hotel, with people observing below. This directly satirizes antisemitic discrimination and exclusionary hiring/housing practices that were common in the era, presenting such prejudice as absurd and worthy of public ridicule. The page's overall theme appears critical of business ethics violations and discriminatory practices.
