Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98, 1890.05.10

** "Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98, 1890.05.10" by Various is a blend of satirical observations offering humorous but sharp commentaries on Victorian Britain's society. The volume presents a collection of sketches, poems, and illustrations that turn a playful eye to the era's societal norms and pressing issues. For example, one sketch uses the character of John Jones, a barrister, to explore the ludicrous outcomes of an eight-hour work law, imagining a city stilled by limitations on work. With satirical wit, the content addresses a range of topics, including labor laws, societal expectations, the legal profession, and the intricate dynamics of social class, politics, and entertainment etiquette. **
