Page 4 of a lecture brochure from the Redpath Lyceum Bureau for illustrator and cartoonist R. F. Outcault's "Funny Pictures" lecture. Outcault was represented by the lecture bureau; they would arrange speaking engagements for him on the subject. Outcault himself illustrated his brochure.
Date
Not dated, but would have to be circa 1902 (creation of Buster Brown who is pictured in the brochure) and 1928 (death of Outcault).

There are no copyright marks on the brochure as can be seen in the link above and in this PDF of the entire brochure from the University of Iowa.
While it is possible that this material was produced prior to 1923, I have opted to license it as being produced pre 1978 with no copyright marks, as no one is certain of the actual date the brochure was printed.
Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (50 p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 p.m.a.), Mexico (100 p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.
