The Wasp — 1895 — page 1074: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and directory content** rather than editorial satire. The main illustrated cartoon shows a fashionable woman's face with the caption "SHE WONDERS WHY," followed by text explaining she doesn't wear an "immense hat" to the theater, yet men behind her still complain—likely satirizing both women's fashion choices and men's theater etiquette complaints. The other substantial image advertises Keating bicycles with the text "THEY ARE HIGH PRICED," suggesting ironic commentary on bicycle costs. The bulk of the page contains hotel, restaurant, and business advertisements for San Francisco establishments. The magazine appears to be a **San Francisco-focused publication** mixing local advertising with light satirical commentary on contemporary social habits and commerce.
