Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: A man holds a pack of cigarettes behind his back, offering them to Public. The packet has a picture of a political candidate on it and the words vote for me. Public eagerly accepts the packet and asks if he can have a second one for his wife. Knechts elephant smokes a cigarette in a holder, like the one used by FDR, and says that some red stamp points would be even more effective in securing votes.

Oh-ho! Will I--and how about one for the wife--she smokes and VOTES. Vote for Me. Cigarettes. And some red point stamps would no doubt clinch it.
