The Wasp — 1887 — page 151: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertisements and satirical anecdotes** rather than political cartoons. The main content includes humorous stories about animal behavior and human eccentricity, such as discussions of dogs, elephants, and a story about "Jonathan Pitts of Norwich, Connecticut," a fast-talking businessman. There is a brief mention of **"George Washington"** in a anecdote about seeing a cat with blue eyes, which appears to be a joke rather than political commentary. The page contains **no clear political cartoons or caricatures**. Instead, it consists of satirical commentary on human nature—vanity, business conduct, and peculiar behavior—typical of The Wasp's style. The advertisements (banks, furniture storage, medicines) dominate the layout alongside these humorous pieces.
