Item description from seller

full page cartoon. Seven satirical vignettes with captions showing the types of jobs which could be held by an array of human oddities if they could no longer work in a "dime museum." Two men carry signboards for a boarding house, one fat and one skinny, another man is taller than a lamppost, a worker cuts electric wires with pliers, a fat woman squashes joke writers for Puck, a man uses his rubbery cheek as a holder for change while begging, a nearly naked man poses for woman who are sketching, and an armless man resets bowling pins with his feet. Suitable for framing Size: 10" x 13".
