Seller's Description
Original 1879 10 1/2 inch x 8 1/4 inch Single-Sided Wood Engraved Cartoon titled THE COLOSSUS OF WORDS (William Ewart Gladstone) from Punch, December 13, 1879.
The cartoon was wood engraved by Joseph Swain (1820 -1909) from an illustration by Sir John Tenniel (1820 - 1914), both were regulars on Punch magazine.
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.
The page is in very good condition. Reverse side blank
