Iowa State Green GanderApril 1919

3

The Green Gander was a satirical magazine that was produced at Iowa State by the men’s journalism honorary society of Sigma Delta Chi for the student body. 

 

This is the cover and a political comic from the edition produced for April in 1919. This serves as a window into the politics of the time, specifically around the issue of prohibition. Iowa had already passed prohibition on a state level and the nation was preparing to implement it as well marking this comic as a window into the views of the local populace at the time.
