# Judge Magazine: Minneapolis Convention Number This is the cover of a special "Minneapolis Convention Number" from Judge magazine (price 10 cents), dated 1892 based on the copyright notice. The central image depicts Lady Liberty (in Roman armor) holding an American flag at a Republican Party convention. A child figure stands beside her. The convention hall is shown in the background, crowded with attendees. The "Republican Party" label visible on Liberty's garment indicates this issue covered the 1892 Republican National Convention held in Minneapolis. The satire appears celebratory of the convention itself rather than sharply critical—Liberty's prominent placement and heroic pose suggest endorsement of the Republican gathering and its nationalist themes. The Judge Building address (Cor. 54 Ave. and 16th St., N.Y.) appears at bottom left.
