The Wasp — 1878 — page 453: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

The visible illustration shows the **California Theatre** logo—a dramatic crest featuring two theatrical figures in classical dress flanking the theatre's name. The actual content on this page is **not satirical cartooning** but rather **theater and entertainment gossip/reviews**. The text discusses various theatrical personalities and performances: George Rignold in "Henry V," upcoming shows at different theaters, and society news about performers like Mlle. Albani and Miss Thuraby. There's also a "Special Notices" section about the magazine itself and advertising for various businesses. This appears to be a **theater and society column** rather than political satire—typical content for The Wasp, which mixed entertainment coverage with its satirical cartoons.
