# "Judge" - Summer Exposures This page presents nine comic panels depicting humorous "exposures" of summer activities, likely from the early 20th century based on the art style. The cartoons satirize typical upper-class summer pastimes: a woman climbing a matterhorn, ladies' tennis tournament spectators, the Rothschilds's supposedly webfooted nature, golf outings, Parisian tourism (Eiffel Tower), motor racing at Cannes, and a character near Cairo's Sphinx. The humor relies on physical comedy and gentle mockery of wealthy leisure activities—forgotten camera film, improper golf attire, sleeping at formal events, and exaggerated anatomical jokes about prominent families. The page appears non-partisan, targeting fashionable society's summer habits rather than political figures or specific events, functioning as light social commentary typical of Judge magazine's satirical approach to contemporary manners.
