Title: Beauties of Bolshevism
Creator(s): Berryman, Clifford Kennedy, 1869-1949, artist
Date Created/Published: 1922.
Summary: Cartoon shows a scruffy Russian peasant, labeled 'Propagandist,' holding out a paper reading 'Beauties of Bolshevism' toward Uncle Sam. Uncle Sam, looking skeptical and disgusted, holds a large cudgel behind his back. In the early 1920s, Russian communists tried to spread the message of Bolshevism in hopes not only of converting others but also in getting recognition from and promoting trade with the United States. The U.S. government viewed these efforts with extreme suspicion.
