Life Drawing Sunday X: Labor Day
Though Labor Day became a national holiday in 1887, just four years after Life began, I couldn't find any cartoons that refer to the holiday specifically. But these drawings (and two text pieces) from the teens into the twenties all comment on labor (or capital) and run the gamut from being fairly supportive of labor (in one case mawkishly so) to being kinda freaked out by it.
