Description: It is hard to escape the legacy of the Punch Magazine. From 1841 to 2002, the magazine cast a satirical eye on life in Britain. It charted the interests, concerns and frustrations of the country and today it stands as an invaluable resource not just as cartoon art and satire, but as primary source material for social historians.This illustration is by Arthur Watts (beautiful cartoon, would look great framed), from Punch magazine published November 6, 1933, original, pulled from the magazine, not a modern reproduction. Full size including blank margins, 8 x 10 1/2 inches. Condition: light wear, being very faint wrinkle or undulation to paper, not visible in the scanned image and does not overwhelm the page; and may be framed as-is, although would look best if mounted onto foam-board and thereby made completely flat; otherwise bright and clean, unrelated text on verso. May be framed."Oh, do stop grumbling, Arthur. You wanted an old-fashioned Christmas and now you've got one." Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002. A very British institution renowned internationally for its wit and irreverence, it helped to coin the term "cartoon" in its modern sense as a humorous illustration.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Questions welcome.
