Four issues of the French Le Pelerin newspaper with large anti-Semitic cartoons in each issue - on the cover page or the last page. Combining European anti-Semitism with medieval Christian anti-Semitism - the line that guided the weekly in its early years.
* A September 27, 1896 issue on the cover page depicts a stereotypical jews father and son in the face of various images depicting anti-Semitic scenes: Dreyfus, a Jew accompanied by interest, Jesus and the Jews, and more, And the father supposedly asks his son which one he wants.

* Issue of April 17, 1904. On the last page a large cartoon showing Jesus crucified with the shadow of the cross on the hill. At the foot of the shadow stands a Jew trying to sweep and erase the shadow (supposedly the many years of Christianity's influence), and the accompanying anti-Semitic caption: "It's a extraordinary, the more I rub, the less it goes away."
* November 22, 1908. On the last page is a large cartoon depicting Jews in stereotypical faces holding silver sacks and anarchy-expressing leaflets. Below is the anti-Semitic inscription allegedly said by the Jews: "The testimony. This France, which we did everything to demolish, still has a soul. It will return ...".
* Issue of July 1, 1923. At the cover of the issue, the crucified Jesus appears to be on fire in a fireplace with a large pot and the antisemitic caption: "The Miracle of Signs: A Christian Comes to Collect the Followed Host from the Blood That the Jew Threw".
Le Pèlerin is a weekly French newspaper that began on July 12, 1873. It is considered the first French magazine in color. It was founded by the Bayard Presse journalist group, which was the initial nucleus. For the first few decades, the newspaper ran an anti-Semitic line and from time to time cartoons accused Jews of the ills of French society, followed by religious accusations of Jesus And Christianity. Throughout the 20th century, the weekly trend was more moderate.
