Men of the Hour as told in Cartoon and Verse

In 1907 the Lewiston Journal produced Men of the Hour as told in Cartoon and Verse. The volume contained 152 caricatures depicting notable men in Maine. Each caricature was accompanied by a verse. From the details in the background of the cartoons and the content of the verses it was possible to identify some of the individuals honored. Others remain a mystery.

Members of the cultural community including libraries and historical societies were solicited for more information. Information was gathered on forty of the subjects. If you have more information on any of these men please contact the us. peggy.o'kane@maine.gov
