# The Eddyssey This page is primarily **advertising** for automobiles (Cadillac Model G and Peerless Model 18), not satirical content. The right side features "The Eddyssey," a cartoon series with drawings and text by Otho Cushing subtitled "The Rooseveltian Saga in Homeric Form." The illustration shows three figures in period dress, appearing to reference classical Greek/Homeric imagery applied to contemporary American political figures. However, the specific identities and satirical point are **unclear from the visible image alone**—the actual text content of the cartoon isn't legible enough to determine which contemporary figures are being mocked or what political situation is being referenced through this classical literary parody format.
