Lithographs include "A First-Class Lie" (title page; shows two wealthy/upper class men--and Englishman in all black with a top hat, monocle, and cane; the other is a Chicago business man in a bowler hat with a pocket watch, cigar, and glasses--in the street in London. A coach labeled "Piccadilly Circus" is seen behind them with passengers); "If They'll Only Be Good" (shows Uncle Sam standing next to a crowd of American soldiers and "Daughters of the Revolution." Uncle Sam is gesturing to both crowds; the soldiers boarding ships to return to America after defeating the Spanish in the Philippines, and the women--one labeled "Daughters of the Revolution" and holding various books, pamphlets, cookware, and a typewriter--are walking towards Philippine natives, presumably to educate them)
