Something I wonder when I see the old Yellow Peril type covers. Did people actually think Asians looked like this? Honestly, nobody looks like that.I suppose that's the nature of characature, but it seems odd, sometimes.
I think people could certainly believe such a caricature, if they were so inclined... Unfortunately.
