Joe Stecher was a professional wrestler back when it was real competitive sport (though not without some match pairings being made more for showmanship instead of pure sport achievement)
The internet is at a loss on who was John H. Samson, of this or prior eras. Also still a mystery is ‘push over the mason temple’? A figure of speech, someone’s nickname, literary/biblical allusion, or a reference to some freemasonry rite?Report
My first thought was that it’s a Biblical allusion.
Or it’s a reference to something that the Masons have since erased from history except for this one cartoon.Report
