Punch, or The London Charivari (1841) - 1st Volume
What a scream. This is pure, unadulterated British satire and humour. I would say of the original kind, if there is such a thing!
This is the complete 1841 publication of Punch. Since this was their first year, there are only 24 weeks worth as they began publishing in July.
ABOUT PUNCH, or THE LONDON CHARIVARI
Punch was a British weekly magazine of humour and satire published from 1841 to 1992 and from 1996 to 2002. Punch material was also collected in book formats as early as the 1800s, including Pick of the Punch annuals with cartoons and text features, Punch and the War a 1941 collection of WWII-related cartoons, and A Big Bowl of Punch which was republished a number of times. Many Punch cartoonists of the late 20th century published collections of their own work partly based on Punch contributions.
