A comic studio scene titled "Caught in the Squeeze." shows a smiling young woman kneeling in a grassy field while two men in dark suits lean in from either side to kiss her cheeks. The photograph has been hand-colored in red, green and pink, a common treatment for humorous postcards of the early 20th century, when such staged courtship gags were a staple of the medium.
