The Man at the Bench
| Poster including two cartoon panels. In the first on the left, titled "The Bench Worker in the Office," a seated man in a suit is saying to a man standing and wearing a work apron, "We have got to get together on this job — for I know what is wanted and you know how to do it." A cartoon blackbird is commenting: "Team work." In the second panel on the right, titled "The Office Worker at the Bench," the man in the suit is standing in front of the seated man in the work apron and saying: "By getting together on that job we turned out better work, and if we keep it up we will both make more out of it."
