# Judge Magazine: "Bridge Contest" Cartoon This appears to be a cover or full-page illustration from Judge magazine's "Bridge Contest" feature, dated October (year unclear from image). The main image shows a convertible automobile approaching a narrow, dramatically carved mountain pass or tunnel with a warning sign reading "ROAD LOCALLY CLOSED / PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK." The satire seems to reference reckless driving or taking unnecessary risks on dangerous roads—a commentary on automotive hazards of the era. The large "JUDGE" text overlays the scene, suggesting this illustrates the magazine's humorous take on contemporary driving behavior and the growing automobile culture's dangers. Without additional context, the specific "bridge contest" being referenced remains unclear, though it likely involved some publicized driving challenge or stunt.
