The novel, Looking Backward, 2000-1887 (1888), serves as the theme for this cartoon, which compares Grover Cleveland’s shrinking stature with the voters of New York over time. The first image depicts a large Cleveland who in 1882 won a landslide victory for the New York governorship over his Republican opponent, Charles Folger, 59%-37%.
