Men insulted by street leers say women must endure
Fragment from a Philadelphia era piece discusses women facing daily objectification on city streets. It cites men who leer at passersby as a recurring annoyance, noting women feel insulted even without spoken remarks and urging better behavior without restating broader moralizing.
Exposition era portfolio and mixed ads headline
A fragmentary early notice advertises an illustrated portfolio titled THE Wamlp's Co BUNTIAN Exposition with water color reproductions of the 1893 Chicago Exposition. It touts architectural figures, authentic drawings, and sells through agents in Chicago and elsewhere, interwoven with various local notices and ads about household remedies, goods, and services. The piece also includes stray lines about a beauty queen, a youth stealing a Werelé, and unrelated items, reflecting the page's damaged OCR.
