Wall Street Frauds Make Wonderful Cartoons #112 / Cartoons Magazine Centennial February 1913

From the February 1913 issue of Cartoons Magazine, above & top, we have “Catching Them With the Goods” by artist James E. Murphy, depicting Wall Street up to one of the dirty tricks it still today attempts to pull.
On the below half of the page, in “What Do the Tea Leaves Show?” by cartoonist Gaar Williams, we see Wall Street worrying about what kind of crack down on their dirty tricks they might be subject to, now that monopolists’ friend Taft had been replaced by Democratics President Wilson.
Click on the above page to display the cartoons in detail, and be able to read their captions.
