Description
English: Title: Let us have a good bankruptcy law, as a protection against the "preferred creditor" swindle

Abstract: Print shows Puck carrying a "Petition - To the 48th Congress" at the head of a long procession of well-dressed businessmen who want Congress to enact a "Good Bankruptcy Law" that would identify fraudulent conveyances to a "Preferred Creditor" and hold swindlers accountable. They march down "Relation's Row" past buildings that are labeled "Grandfather Preferred, Brother Preferred, 19th Cousin Preferred, Uncle Preferred, Sister Preferred, [and] Brother in Law". Physical description: 1 print : chromolithograph.
