For its New Year’s issue in 1925, Judge, a satirical magazine, included this image on its cover. By the middle of the 1920s, the nation was deep into the “Roaring Twenties,” with its carefree excess, sense of personal freedom, and rejection of the values of earlier generations. In particular, women—who had earned the vote in 1920—were feeling newly empowered and were rejecting the straitlaced respectability of their mothers and grandmothers. In a few bold strokes and splashes of color, this cover captures much of the spirit of the decade as experienced by young people.
