Photo of Puck,Annual Surplus,Consequences,1899,Erhart,Vocational Education

Title: The annual surplus and its consequences - a study inspired by the commencement season of 1899 / Ehrhart.
Creator(s): Ehrhart, S. D. (Samuel D.), ca. 1862-1937, artist
Date Created/Published: N.Y. : Published by Keppler & Schwarzmann, 1899 June 28.
Summary: Print shows, on the left, a long line of recent graduates with their 'Diploma', some labeled 'Doctor' and 'Lawyer', passing by a man with a sign that states 'Wanted Skilled Labor - Mechanics, Designers, Carvers, Electricians, Artisans, Practical Men'; they end up at the 'Employment Agency' where a sign is posted that states 'Wanted Day Laborers, Street Sweepers, Waiters, Hod Carriers, Street Car Drivers, &c., &c.' The man looking for skilled labor on the left, is now on the right signing up foreign laborers, as they step off the ship, for the positions the graduates turned down.
Notes:
Title from item.
Caption: The professions turned loose; they scorn skilled labor - but many of them have to seek unskilled labor in the end - while the employer of skilled labor finally has to get it from abroad.
Illus. from Puck, v. 45, no. 1164, (1899 June 28), centerfold.
