RARE PUNCH 1879 Cartoon BRITISH IMPERIALISM - South Africa

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 for social historians.THE NEW DRIVER!!

Combine orders with no extra shipping fees. Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002.
