Summary

Illustration showing two tramps dressed in cast-off and ill-fitting clothes discussing how to kill the "Trusts" through "Social Ostracism"; on the left is a well-dressed matronly woman wearing a robe labeled "The 400" and sitting on a throne, on the right is a man labeled "Trusts" sitting on the Treasury(?) building and holding onto strings attached to businesses, as well as ships and railroads, in which the "Trusts" hold controlling interests.

Caption continues: "The Trusts have got to be ostracised, but who [is goin]g to do it? Society won['t and] Capitol won't, so there's nobody to do it but us!"
Illus. in: Puck, v. 47, no. 1200 (1900 March 7), centerfold.

Alois Senefelder, the inventor of lithography, introduced the subject of colored lithography in 1818. Printers in other countries, such as France and England, were also started producing color prints. The first American chromolithograph—a portrait of Reverend F. W. P. Greenwood—was created by William Sharp in 1840. Chromolithographs became so popular in American culture that the era has been labeled as "chromo civilization". During the Victorian times, chromolithographs populated children's and fine arts publications, as well as advertising art, in trade cards, labels, and posters. They were also used for advertisements, popular prints, and medical or scientific books.
