1860 ENGLISH COMIC ART - PUNCH MAGAZINE INSPIRED

1860s. Item #359

There are 75 original pieces of artwork in this disbound scrapbook, including pen & ink drawings and a few small watercolors. Most of the items that are dated are from the mid 1860s, with at least one from the 1850s. Many of the items have either handwritten inscriptions or cut-out captions and it is clear that this is from England. The comic drawings have a Punch Magazine-like look to them, with one drawing entitled “Mr. Punch.” None are signed.

The pages measure about 8.25” x 10.25,” and the art are various sizes. Some pages have had items cut out, and other have been removed. This collection has seen better days, but what remains is in good condition. Makes you feel like you are in a Dickens novel. All of the pages are shown.
