About this subject

Chromolithograph comic card showing a large, furious man in striped shirt and green-striped trousers being swarmed and tormented by a crowd of small mischievous babies — one pulling his hair, one aiming a bow and arrow, others tugging at his clothing. A yellow panel at upper left carries the greeting "May all your TROUBLES Be LITTLE ONES".
