Summary

Illustration shows that a freight train has departed a railroad station labeled "Producer" in the countryside and is passing through a tunnel labeled "Parcels Post Tunnel" in a mountain labeled "Mount Middleman" that has the figure of a man on its side; the front of the train has emerged on the city-side of the mountain and is headed toward a station labeled "Consumer" where a crowd of people are anxiously waiting.

Caption: Mount Middleman is no longer an insurmountable barrier between producer and consumer.
Illus. in: Puck, v. 72, no. 1870 (1913 January 1), centerfold.
