description

Summary

Illustration shows a two panel cartoon with, on the left, captioned "Master and Pupils", a European officer is drilling a rag-tag group of disinterested and poorly armed soldiers; on the right, captioned "Pupils and Master", a diminutive European officer is dwarfed by large, well-equipped, well-trained, and disciplined Chinese soldiers.

Illus. in: Puck, v. 70, no. 1813 (1911 November 29), centerfold.

Copyright 1911 by Keppler & Schwarzmann.

Udo J. Keppler, known from 1894 as Joseph Keppler Jr., was an American political cartoonist, publisher, and Native American advocate. The son of cartoonist Joseph Keppler (1838–1894), who founded Puck magazine, the younger Keppler also contributed cartoons, and became co-owner of the magazine after his father's death, when he changed his name to Joseph Keppler. He was also a collector of Native American artifacts, and was adopted by the Seneca Nation, where he became an honorary chief and given the name Gyantwaka.
