Image Description:
A racist political cartoon depicting a waiter standing over a 'Hungry Democrat' about to serve him an anthropomorphized crow. The waiter enquires, "Not eat crow, sir? Crow's in season; everybody eats crow now, sir." The democrat, apprehensive and perhaps slightly embarrassed, replies "Oh, yes, I kin eat crow on a pinch, but I don't hanker after it, and I'll be darned if I do when I can get good Seymour pork and beans."
