    Four original pen and ink drawings by Lute Pease. The drawings include "A Shocking Comeback" (showing a boy with an axe and pants reading "Allies," a headless turkey with a sign reading "give it back...", and a turkey head with a tag reading "Constantinople"); "When the Premiership was Vacant" (showing a lion with his tail caught in a door reading "Pressing European Problems" with an apparent George V painting a sign reading "Wanted Quick A New Keeper"); "We'll 'Emancipate' Him" (showing robbers labeled "Lenine" and "Kemal" referring to a traveler marked "Balkans"); and "Vampiring" (showing an apparent Uncle Sam writing "Internal Revenue Business" in a ledger while being attacked by a winged elephant labeled "Republican Job Raid"). The drawings appear to date from the early 1920s.
