# Life Magazine Print Advertisement This page is primarily **advertising**, not political satire. It promotes "Life Prints in Color" — illustrated prints sold by Life Publishing Company for 25 cents each or $1.50 for six. The six prints shown feature humorous domestic and social scenes typical of early 20th-century Life magazine's comedic style: - "Another Great Discovery" (laboratory scene) - "Keep Your Eye on the Ball" (figure with telescope) - "All's Well That Ends Well" (dog with bow) - "Target Practice" (woman shooting) - "Who Did That?" (figure with child) - "How the Rumor Started" (hammock scene) Each caption plays on the image for comedic effect. These were marketed as affordable gift items, printed on Bristol board at 12×16 inches, shipped prepaid from the Life Publishing Company's New York office.
