Cartoon featuring sweating Cornelius Vanderbilt rowing a boat named Monopoly with four other men, three with perturbed expressions. The word "Speculation" floats in the water, as does a hat with a rolled up piece of paper imprinted with "Finance" stuck inside. A man wearing a top hat and holding an American flag sits on a fence on the shore observing the situation.
