description

Summary

Broadside, on the front, shows calaveras bicycling, with identifying labels, "Voz de México," "Patria," "Universal," "Tiempo," "Partido Liberal," "Gil Blas," names of popular newspapers, and "Siglo XIX," and "Siglo XX." They trample additional calaveras, labeled "Razalatin" and "Quijote." The text block is illustrated with additional skeletons. On the verso, there is a large central image which shows calaveras holding sheets of paper illustrated with skulls near vendors of religious objects. The text near it reads "And now the public will enter an astonishing tranquility, how free they will be from gossiping people." A large skull appears below and the text block is illustrated with small skeletons.
