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.A LOT OF 8 FULL PAGE 1920 PUBLISHED PUNCH MAGAZINE CARTOONS: SUBJECT IS LABOR1.
