Young America’s Dilemma (1901)

The cartoon “Young America’s Dilemma (Shall I be Wise and Great, or Rich and Powerful?)” is a chromolithograph by Louis Dalrymple that appeared as an illustration in Puck magazine in 1901. It was published in New York by Keppler & Schwarzmann, the firm that owned and issued Puck at the time.
