"Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 159, 1920-10-06" by Various is a collection of funny drawings, teasing stories, and happy thoughts about what was happening in society and politics back then, showing what life was like in the early 1900s. A funny British magazine gives a peek at what people thought and what was going on in Britain after World War I, looking closely at daily life, politics, and complaints, all with a funny twist. Inside, readers find fun stories, fake news, and silly poems, made to make people laugh while also making jokes about what was normal and what was going on. People will read about silly characters and weird situations, like a taxi driver chatting about strange people walking around, and a funny look at how crazy the coal business was. With its fun words and smart opinions about daily life, "Punch" tries to make people happy and show what life was like during a time of recovery and change. Light-hearted feelings are highlighted with drawings that make the comedy even better, making this work a part of history.
