1899 Cover Harvard Lampoon Paul Bartlett University Jester Lampy House Pipe HVD1 PNR3 Arlington MansionPlease note that this is a cover only. This is an original 1899 two color cover for the Harvard Lampoon, It features the Harvard Jester sitting on a winged horse, holding up a shield inscribed with the motto VA NI TAS (Latin, meaning "empty"), a parody of Harvard's motto, Veritas, or "Truth". An abandoned house staggers around the inner panel, clutching cards in one hand, a bottle of rye in the other, all while smoking two pipes simultaneously.
