What you’re looking at

This political cartoon depicts a mail carrier delivering letters to what appears to be a residential mailbox. The figure on the right wears a hat and formal attire typical of late 19th-century dress. The composition is rotated (meant to be viewed sideways), which was common in The Wasp's satirical layouts. The specific political or social commentary is unclear from the image alone without additional context about the publication date and contemporary issues. The title "At the Post" suggests commentary on postal service, mail delivery, or possibly government/bureaucratic processes. However, without identifying the specific figures or understanding the historical moment, I cannot confidently explain the satire's intended target or message to modern readers.
