Title: Halloween and the Minnesota snowball
Creator(s): Bartholomew, Charles Lewis, 1869-1949, artist
Date Created/Published: [between 1898 and 1915]
Summary: Two figures are shown standing outdoors in the snow, one with a jack-o-lantern head and the other with a snowball for a head. The jack-o-lantern wears a bow tie labled 'Halloween' and holds a party horn. From the corner of its mouth, smoky breath eminates, perhaps serving as an indication of the cold temperature. The snowball, in mittens and a tie labled 'Minnesota Snowball,' stands next to the jack-o-lantern holding one hand to his mouth.
