Content Provider | Library of Congress - Photographs |

Description | Depicts two iron-clad submarines, one in the form of an elephant, and the other, in the shape of a donkey. The former labeled "Republican Machine," and the latter marked "Democratic Machine," are both surmounted by the head of a politician smoking a cigar. They are stranded at the bottom of the ocean where the elephant is entangled in chains and the fallen donkey wears a "Help" sign attached to its tail. From within each submarine, a political boss with an alarmed expression, looks out through a porthole. A sign reading "The Political Deep," indicates what appears to be their final resting place. |
