Creator(s): Mayer, Henry, 1868-1954, artist
Date Created/Published: New York : Published by Puck Publishing Corporation, 295-309 Lafayette Street, 1914 August 29.
Summary: Illustration shows a vignette cartoon depicting scenes from travel, such as a shocked woman confronted by a 'U.S. Customs' scarecrow; a distorted view of Pisa aided by 'a wonderful quality of chianti'; a Dutch woman exchanging her traditional costume for the latest Parisian fashions after the tourists have gone home; a composite of images from 'one of those hurried tours around the world', compressing sites from many places into a single image/impression; ruins that remind the traveler of construction projects back home; a woman sitting on a lonely beach populated with signs for the many different 'seas' she has encountered while traveling; and what may be a self-portrait of the artist sending postcards from places around the world, while never leaving home.
