Illustrated political chart, a cartoon of American politics and the Tapeworm Party. Print shows James G. Blaine as the head of a tapeworm made up of various government scandals over a map of the United States. Printed as a chromolithograph by the Chicago Bank Note Co., May 29th 1888. Quote from passage "They would pillage the place of the king of kings, And strip the gilding from an angel's wings; Cheat the living and rob the dead, And deprive the orphan of his crust of bread."
