An image by Political Cartoonist Thomas Nash pertaining to the populist view of the scholar and athlete. About the only political neutral image I could find, while it doesn't completely showcase anti-intellectualism, it does show the overall personification of the issue. The reedy scholar with an abnormal size head, an egghead, and the boxer with a fit muscular body yet small head, both epitomizing the disproportionate mental and physical capacity. This image essentially exemplifies the difference and distaste one group has for the other. While it doesn't hold much depth, it's still able to get its intended message across.
