Puck's Christmas tree

Puck's Christmas tree. Illustration shows a large, decorated Christmas tree around which appear some of the characters who routinely appear in Puck's cartoons, such as the automobile driving scofflaw holding a gift of Horse Liniment, the domineering servant with her gift of an alarm clock, the housemaid and her gift of China cement, an Irishman holding a box of English Soldiers labeled For Patrick, and For Mr. Henpeck two tickets to the Theatre - to night Taming of the Shrew which he is offering to his contemptuous wife. Puck is standing on a step ladder at center, offering a crown For Miss Gotrox to a stylishly dressed young woman straining to reach it. Others are receiving equally poignant gifts. Date 1902 December 24
