The Wasp — 1880 — page 70: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertisements and commercial notices** rather than political satire. The main content includes: - A Domestic sewing machine ad (left) - Albany Cylinder Oil and lubricating products ads - Cherryman's hat shop (San Francisco) - Neptune Mermaid Swimming Baths (establishment details) - J.M. Brunswick & Balke Co. billiard table manufacturers The only illustrated "cartoon" is the **Cherryman's hat advertisement**, showing three Victorian-era gentlemen in top hats—this appears to be straightforward commercial imagery promoting fashionable headwear, not political satire. The page number (63) and header "The Illustrated Wasp" confirm this is from the satirical magazine, but this particular page functions as a **commercial section** rather than containing editorial cartoons or political commentary.
