What you’re looking at

This comic strip titled "Some More Pre-War" appears to satirize a magician or entertainer attempting to produce romantic partners from a bed. In each panel, a man in formal attire (top hat, tails) performs magic tricks, initially producing one woman, then two, then multiple women from what appears to be a magic box or bed prop. The final panel shows the magician labeled "GEORGE" being ejected through a door, suggesting the trick has gone awry or become uncontrollable. The "pre-war" reference likely indicates this is satirizing entertainment or social behavior from before a specific conflict (possibly WWI, given Judge's era). The joke appears to center on the magician's inability to control his act's increasingly chaotic results—a commentary on either magical performance incompetence or romantic entanglement complications.
