Evidence of Prosperity

Given the success our series on the cartoons of the Great Depression has enjoyed in these difficult times, I thought our readership might also wish to see this mordant work by Rodney F. Thomson (1878-1941) from Life magazine, February 6, 1913.

    Well, I think this would make a fine card, although it does have a lot of fine detail.

    The original cartoon was a full 8.5×11 magazine page. Unfortunately, I don’t think it would reproduce well as a 4.25×6 postcard.
