| Description | A worried man dressed as a farmer, labeled "The Puzzled Citizen," scratches his head while standing near a box marked "$" near the doorway of a barn marked "Missouri." He is confronted by an octopus symbolizing Standard Oil and its subsidiaries, bent into the shape of a Trojan horse. The octopus's head, marked with the words "Same Old Contortionist," peers out furtively from a box that forms the body of the horse. The box is marked with word "Partnership" and is tagged "Please Take Me In." |
