-Description: This is the original artwork for the daily comic strip Judge Rummy's Court (aka Silk Hat Harry's Divorce Suit, Bunk, Little Bunk, Old Judge Rumhauser, That's What They All Say).  Published on November 16, 1921, this daily features the Judge and his police officer pal Elbert.  When the Judge asks about the marks on Elbert's beezer (nose), Elbert responds that they're caused by glasses (i.e., eyeglasses).  Not unreasonably, the Judge asks "Glasses?  Of what".  A cute gag well rendered by "Tad" Dorgan, one of the top cartoonists of the nineteen teens and twenties.  RIL
