Asa Packer
Puck Magazine
"In Memory of Asa Packer". Puck. Vol. V, No.117. June 4, 1879. Keppler & Schwarzmann, New York.
Considered to be the first American humor magazine, Puck's covers were usually colorful political cartoons. As the founder of Lehigh University, Asa Packer's investment in education, rather than leaving his wealth to his heirs, was admired by Puck by portraying him as the "sower of seeds".
