"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 100, February 21, 1891" is an assemblage of satirical pieces and drawings crafted by diverse writers, typifying the British comic magazine "Punch," prominent in the late 1800s. This compilation holds funny quips, perceptions, and charming images showing the culture, government, and community of the Victorian times. The central theme includes wit and mockery about problems of that era, adding to discussions using jokes and satire. The volume presents comical skits and verses, like "Through Space on a Formula," a quirky tale of people making a silly trip to space with an iceberg tackling wild obstacles and dumb science. Several parts give light-hearted criticism of social issues, like electric lights and their impact of crime, funny poems about Tolstoy's tobacco habits, and jibes targeting people and happenings. Each part shows the style of Victorian satire, using clever irony and funny commentary to give vision to the society of those times, offering comic relief and social understanding.
