The title, "One strike!", pairs a baseball phrase with the name Hamilton, which points to a caricature or topical cartoon rather than a straight view of the city. The record does not say who made it or when, so the exact occasion remains uncertain. New York in the late nineteenth century produced many illustrated prints like this, which used comic figures and everyday slang to comment on politics, business and public life. The "(2)" in the title suggests this is one of several related impressions, and comparing it with the others may help explain the joke.
