Abstract
Cat on treadwheel chases mouse on treadwheel, and that power's a dog-cobbler's rotary machine for working on shoes. Signs on the shop wall say "Shoes left over 10 days belong to me" and "Save your soles -- Walk on your hands." What might this scene have to do with Aesop? There is a signature of "Morgan" in the lower right of the lithograph, though I cannot discern the rest of the logo; I presume Morgan was the printer of the poster.
