The Wasp — 1896 — page 480: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and entertainment listings** for San Francisco theaters and amusements, typical of early 1900s periodicals. The two illustrations appear to be: 1. **Upper left**: A photograph or portrait of Miss Adair, identified as performing in "La Jolie Poller," described as a "dancing rival." 2. **Lower left**: A sketch titled "MISCONSTRUED," depicting two men in period dress with a caption about a minister walking through a churchyard observing dead bodies, then praising God—the humor appears satirical about misinterpreting religious devotion. The page contains no clear political cartoons or social satire. It functions primarily as an **entertainment guide** listing local theaters, performances, and admission prices for San Francisco audiences.
