This is an original 1900 halftone print from the Harvard Lampoon in which Lampy the jester and his friends Thresky and the minstrel illustrate a Harvard football game against the University of Pennsylvania from their perspective. The student artist, Paul Bartlett, included the year of his expected graduation (1902) next to his signature. Please note that we at Period Paper do not condone racism of any kind, or find it humorous, however this item is of historical record.
