Image description: etched political cartoon. A lion is on a wheeled pedestal labeled “British”. A man in a suit and befeathered top hat twists the lion’s tail. A bald man in a suit twists its head. The lion’s mouth is open. Behind the men and lion is a storefront labeled “furs”. A man watched open-mouthed through the window. Next to the cartoon is a colored registry thingy, for calibrating colors.

A detailed explanation of the cartoon is at HarpWeek (and TBH their image of the cartoon is clearer than the one I uploaded. I chose the LOC one because the permissions were clearer). In summary: In American politics, the Republican presidential nominee and the Greenback-Labor nominee were both critical of Great Britain (represented by the lion).
