The Wasp — 1877 — page 317: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and announcements** for San Francisco establishments and services (June 30, 1877). The left side contains theater reviews and amusement venue notices. The right side features transportation schedules for the San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad, plus various business advertisements. The only cartoon element visible is **"Yeast Powder" advertising** (center-left), which uses a circular seal design—typical commercial artwork rather than political satire. The bottom features a **cherub/putto illustration** for "Henry Harroway" liquor store (402 Kearny Street). This appears to be a **business/advertising-heavy issue** with minimal satirical political content, unlike typical Wasp covers that featured pointed social commentary.
