Diamonds and Mosquito Aims in Historic News Snippets
A collage of 19th century clippings notes fortunes in diamonds worn by New York society ladies, mentions Mrs John Jacob Astor and Mrs W H Vanderbilt, and recounts a famed Garnet Regent as valued at a million. It also parodies mosquito hunting as military strategy with fanciful losses and reports small town crimes, asylums, and a death notice for Madge Harrison Turrison.
