What you’re looking at
This page from *Judge* magazine features theatrical photographs rather than a cartoon. It showcases three Broadway performers from the early 1920s: **May MacAvoy** (Famous Players studio actress), **Frances Reveaux** (Ziegfeld Follies performer), and **Emma Haig** (from Broadway's "Music Box" revue) are presented with admiring captions. The Burns quote—"that's newly sprung in June"—appears to be a poetic reference to springtime romance, likely praising MacAvoy's youthful appeal. The page functions as **entertainment coverage and celebrity promotion** rather than satire. The phrase "Attaboy MacAvoy!" conveys casual enthusiasm. This reflects *Judge*'s mixed content: while primarily a satirical publication, it regularly featured entertainment industry coverage and pinup-style photographs of popular actresses and performers, appealing to readers interested in Broadway and silent cinema during the Jazz Age.
