This is a title page rather than a cartoon. The Roosevelt quote emphasizes singular patriotic loyalty to "the American People" rather than to any faction, party, or foreign power—likely reflecting post-WWI anxieties about divided loyalties and immigrant communities. Published in 1921 by W.H. Fawcett, this *Whiz-Bang* issue was edited by a Spanish-American War and World War I veteran and dedicated to U.S. fighting forces. The Allied Printing Trades Union label indicates labor affiliation. The timing suggests the publication addresses nationalist concerns during the post-war period, when debates over Americanism, immigration, and internal loyalty were particularly fraught.
