The Wasp — 1880 — page 340: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising content** with one small cartoon labeled "ALL OUT" in the upper left corner. The cartoon depicts two figures in what appears to be a domestic dispute—a man and woman in physical confrontation. The dialogue below identifies them as "Visitor," "James," and an unnamed master, suggesting a scene of marital discord or domestic violence played for comedic effect. The remainder of the page consists of business advertisements for San Francisco establishments (sugar refinery, furniture dealers, grocers, hotels) interspersed with brief editorial notes about upcoming Wasp content. Without additional context about the specific individuals referenced or the date's social circumstances, the cartoon's precise satirical target remains unclear, though domestic conflict was a common subject of period humor.
