What you’re looking at
This page features a **puzzle competition** where readers identify five Civil War battles from cartoon illustrations, plus name an advertised product. The contest offered monetary prizes and magazine subscriptions to winners. The six images appear to depict **Civil War battle scenes** rendered as visual riddles—readers had to recognize which battles were represented and write a brief article evaluating whether *Judge* magazine was improving or declining in quality. Winners received $5 for the best entry, with additional prizes for subsequent submissions. The page is primarily an **advertising vehicle** for various products (liqueurs, cigarettes, champagne, collars) and establishments surrounding the puzzle contest. This was typical of *Judge*'s format: mixing satirical content with sponsored advertisements. The contest itself served dual purposes—engaging readers while promoting the magazine's brand and longevity.
