"In other words this press is capable of printing four pages of reading material and four pages of colored plates, or six pages of reading material and two pages of colored plates."The front page of the issue featured a four-color (yellow, red, blue and black) portrait of Grover Cleveland, who had just received the Democratic Party's nomination for president. There's no artist credited on the portrait, which is fairly boiler-plate with the addition of color.
