The Fare Sex
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Puck, a Humorous Take on Courtship and Economics in Late 19th Century America This cartoon, titled "The Fare Sex," is a classic example of the satirical wit and social commentary found in the pages of Puck magazine during the late 19th century. Created by the renowned American graphic humor publication, this image offers a humorous yet insightful look into the societal norms and expectations surrounding courtship and economics during this era. The cartoon depicts a man and a woman seated in a horse-drawn carriage, with the man reaching into his pocket to pay the fare. However, instead of a driver, the figure collecting the payment is a woman, dressed in the latest fashionable attire and adorned with an extravagant feathered hat. The man, clearly taken aback by this unexpected turn of events, looks surprised and slightly displeased. The title of the cartoon, "The Fare Sex," plays on the double meaning of the term "fare," which can refer both to the payment for a ride and to a person's social or economic standing. This clever title highlights the theme of gender roles and economic power dynamics that were prevalent during this time. The cartoon's intricate details and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, capturing the essence of the late 19th century and the unique blend of humor and social commentary that defined Puck magazine. This print, with its timeless appeal and insight into the past, is a must-have for any collection focused on American history, social commentary, or graphic humor.
