# Judge's Rotogravure Section Analysis This page from Judge magazine combines entertainment industry satire with political commentary: **"First-Run Comedies Only"** showcases silent film industry content, including a reference to Jack Dempsey (boxing champion turned actor). The theater marquee satirizes Hollywood's output. **"Spirit-Photograph of Peggy Hopkins' Latest Wedding"** mocks actress Peggy Hopkins, known for multiple marriages—a common subject of 1920s satire about celebrity excess. **"New Battleship Missouri"** depicts naval military equipment, likely contemporary military commentary. **"At the Wembley Exhibition"** presents political caricatures comparing "Old Scout" and "Labor Gov't" figures, referencing Britain's Labour Party political shift. The symbolic contrast criticizes political change in post-WWI Britain. The page blends entertainment gossip with international political commentary typical of Judge's satirical approach.
