What you’re looking at

This political cartoon depicts a group of men in suits and hats gathered together, apparently greeting or acknowledging each other. The title references the Scottish song "Auld Lang Syne" ("should old acquaintance be forgot"), traditionally sung at farewells and New Year's celebrations. The cartoon appears to satirize politicians or public figures reconnecting or reconciling—possibly after an election, scandal, or political shift. The casual, sociable gathering suggests ironic commentary on how former rivals or opponents maintain cordial relationships despite their public disagreements, or how political enemies conveniently "remember" old friendships when circumstances demand it. Without additional context or visible attribution, the specific historical moment remains unclear, though the style suggests early-to-mid 20th century Judge magazine content.
