The Yellow Kid


I think it's really interesting how people try to create things that are both entertaining but they reflect issues of the times also. The Yellow Kid, a comic from the late 19th century and early 20th century, does a really good job of this. It's really interesting to look at the comic and try and pick out all the things that the comic is trying to say about life in the slums of New York.
