Printed 108 years ago today in the Chicago Day Book. I modified the image Brightness and Contrast.

Found on the Library of Congress site.

How is it rich assholes looked EXACTLY like that 100 years ago, and STILL look exactly like that today???

Kind of freaky that one looks like Wilford Brimley.....

These men should be running scared because Everett is secomds from dragging them out into the street and beating them to death.

I suspect they were somewhat well known at the time. The caricatures have too much detail to be nobodies. Can't name them though, that'd be libelous.
