Summary

Description
English: This drawing/caricature is typical of the period (1920s) depicting Asians with somewhat demeaning features. Note the "buck" teeth of the Japanese soldier. This was a derogatory trope regarding East Asians similar to that of Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany's imitating a Japanese (American) landlord with enormous buck teeth that no one could understand. Someone might ask why this would be racist? These descriptions generalize various ethnicities of Asian and East Asian peoples to be less than human and are unsavory depictions (the tropes depict these others as goofy, stupid, certainly not vogue, not cool, not one of us). This is not meant to use or over-use any amount of what can be termed in the 21st century, "woke." Simply imagine this trope alongside some used to depict Jews. Everyone agrees on anti-semitism and anti-semitic tropes, yet only half of the same viewers and academics agree on racism when depicting Asians. Why is that? The trope/this type of imagery was "en vogue" in Europe, N. America and the West when this was published (published in a Soviet newspaper, Red Banner in Russian, April 4, 1926, page 3). This author (me, the uploader) digitized this photo.
