Annotated "N.Y." in pencil in the margin. One of Australia's top satirical cartoonists, Dyson came to New York City and had a show of his prints at Ferargil Galleries in 1930 which sold out. In an article in the New York Times he was compared to Daumier. This image may very have been in that show (ref. Will Dyson, Australia's Radical Genius, Ross McMullin, Melbourne, 2006, p. 352).
