Summary

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 99, December 27, 1890" by Various is a comedic magazine from the late 1800s which uses satire to look at British life. The stories and jokes poke fun at well-known people and happenings of that time. One piece puts a current spin on "Cinderella," showing her turning away from old traditions. The magazine also has funny views on laws, family life over Christmas, and entertaining rhymes. The writers use funny drawings and lighthearted stories to discuss social rules, government, and celebrations, making fun of what was normal back then.
