Title: PUNCH, or the London Charivari vol XXXII 32 january - june 1857
Description: London, Punch Office, 1857. 28 x 22 cm. Hardcover. Hardcover, 28 x 22 cm cm, 262 pp. English, Illustrations, book condition: Very Good. Punch, or The London Charivari was a British weekly magazine of humour and satire established in 1841 by Henry Mayhew and wood-engraver Ebenezer Landells. Historically, it was most influential in the 1840s and 1850s, when it helped to coin the term "cartoon" in its modern sense as a humorous illustration. Artists at Punch included John Tenniel who, from 1850, was the chief cartoon artist at the magazine for over 50 years. The editors took the anarchic puppet Mr Punch, of Punch and Judy, as their mascot—the character appears in many magazine covers—with the character also an inspiration for the magazine's name. Very Good.
