| Description | Print shows a vignette cartoon with Puck as Diogenes carrying a lantern and a lithographic pen, seeking the perfect mayor for New York City; at center Puck gets the opinion of "The Republican Machine" (Thomas C. Platt with the tail and ears of a fox) and "Tammany" Hall (Richard Croker with the tail and ears of the Tammany Tiger), and in the surrounding vignettes, he hears the opinions of "The Sunday Closers" who respect the Sabbath, "The Reformers" who seek "a man of the highest ideals ... and irreproachable character!" and have "Seth Low" at the top of their list, as well as "The Germans" and "The Bicyclers" before returning to the "Office of Puck", somewhat dismayed. |
