# "Grass, But Not Green" This October 1913 *Judge* cartoon satirizes a woman traveler sitting on a suitcase marked "NEW YORK," holding what appears to be a travel document or ticket. The caption "Grass, But Not Green" is a cryptic reference—likely a play on words about travel or expectations versus reality. The image appears to comment on either the travel industry, tourism, or possibly women's increasing independence in traveling alone during this era. The suitcase labels and her composed pose suggest commentary on modern travel experiences or the commercialization of tourism. Without additional context about specific 1913 events or figures, the exact satirical target remains unclear, though it likely critiques contemporary attitudes about travel or travelers.
