This page is **not a political cartoon**. It's a theatrical feature titled "Through Judge's Opera Glasses," showcasing six actresses from Winter Garden productions: - **Madge Titheradge** in "A Butterfly on the Wheel" - **Irene Claire** of the Winter Garden Co. - **Dollie Dainert**, a Winter Garden beauty - **Molly Pearson** in "Dainty Dolls and the Strings" - **Ida Adams** in "A Winsome Widow" - **Josie Collins**, posed at the Winter Garden The "opera glasses" metaphor frames these theatrical portraits as worthy of close scrutiny—a common Judge device for highlighting performers. This is entertainment journalism/advertising rather than satire, featuring stage actresses of the era in glamorous portrait photography.
