# "The Fairway" - Judge Magazine, June 12, 1926 This golf-themed cartoon satirizes women's participation in the sport during the 1920s. Two fashionably dressed women in cloche hats and period swimwear-style golf attire converse on the course while holding golf clubs. In the background, male golfers play, appearing smaller and less prominent. The satire likely comments on the novelty and social disruption of women's growing presence in previously male-dominated recreational spaces during the Jazz Age. The women's prominent positioning, modern dress, and apparent confidence suggest they command attention on "the fairway"—perhaps mocking or celebrating women's increasing social independence and their invasion of traditionally masculine leisure activities in the 1920s.
