July fourth imagery from the New York Public Library Digital collection.
The tot directly above is identified as "Advertisement for Burr McIntosh monthly magazine that depicts a child with an explosive and a calendar of the month of July." The c. 1920 hooligans at top are "boys stuffing gunpowder into a toy canon." Eesh.
