The scene depicts a shrewd farmer, carpet bag marked 'Farmers' Alliance,' grabbing the chin of a portly confidence man who attempts to lure him into the 'Republican War Tariff Bunco Joint.' Through the doorway, other schemers labeled 'Reed' and 'Hoar' wait with their fraudulent wares.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDalrymple's masterful chromolithograph illustration exemplifies Puck's renowned political satire during the Gilded Age. Published just months before the controversial McKinley Tariff became law, this cover gave voice to millions of farmers who felt exploited by protective trade policies that benefited industrialists at their expense. The farmer's knowing expression and his grip on 'Political Power' suggest the agrarian movement was awakening to its electoral strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA significant document of American populist politics, this cover captures the tensions that would soon give rise to the Populist Party. A standout piece for collectors of political ephemera and Gilded Age Americana.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5\" x 10.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Louis Dalrymple\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Authentic Vintage Posters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44626606194803,"sku":"CA7177","price":52.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/3005\/8556\/files\/edited_d70cba16-584a-4adb-98eb-0269de7255c6.jpg?v=1775243160","url":"https:\/\/www.authenticvintageposters.com\/en-nl\/products\/puck-cover-40","provider":"Authentic Vintage Posters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
