One Shot Wonders: Nine Red Jokes by Clarence Rigby, 1898
Clarence Rigby, who made the rounds of many syndicates around the turn of the century, pulls out all the stops with some impressive cartooning on this half-page one-shot, but then doesn't really follow through in the gag department. This seems like a Family Feud game show category -- name nine things that are red, and you'll get a big smooch from Richard Dawson.
This one-shot ran in the New York World on January 30 1898.
