Image of a landscape view of a wilderness area with three frontiersmen, two of whom smoke pipes, and a young woman with a bucket sitting and standing in a clearing and eavesdropping on a conversation between two young men, with a lake, cabin, and trees in the background; the poster advertises the melodrama "The Wolf, a play of the Canadian woods" by Eugene Walter. Probable date based on general show history; the play was first performed in 1908. "'You have been making love to Hilda'"--text, bottom margin. "The / Enquirer / Litho. Co. / Cin. O."--text, bottom right.
