What you’re looking at

This appears to be a satirical cartoon from *The Wasp* magazine depicting a grotesque bearded face in profile (labeled "LIL WUZZY" on the left margin). The head is drawn as a vessel or container, with its interior filled with various small figures, toys, animals, and objects—suggesting the chaotic contents of someone's mind or character. On the right side, angelic or demonic figures appear to be influencing or commenting on this character, with one visible speech balloon reading "LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION" and "DELIVERANCE," suggesting moral/religious themes. The satire appears to mock a particular public figure or character type, though without additional context, the specific identity remains unclear. The grotesque caricature style was typical of *The Wasp's* aggressive satirical approach to contemporary personalities or social types.
