And There He Will Stick!, from Puck Possibly 1887

"And There He Will Stick!" is a political cartoon by Louis Dalrymple, published in the magazine *Puck* in 1887. The cartoon depicts John Sherman, a Republican senator, climbing a ladder towards the White House, which is perched atop a cliff. Sherman is seen struggling, with the caption stating that he has "put his foot on the fourth round of the ladder that leads to the Presidency." The cartoon satirizes Sherman's political ambitions and the perceived difficulty of achieving the presidency, using humor to comment on the political landscape of the time. It is an example of the popular genre of political cartoons in the late 19th century, which used visual satire to express opinions and critique current events.
