Summary

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 108, May 11th, 1895" by Various is a comedic magazine from the late 1800s that uses jokes and pictures to make fun of what was happening back then, like popular culture, government, and how people lived. The magazine uses clever jokes and funny drawings to talk about things like writing books, what politicians were doing, and how crowded and messy London could be, making fun of the strange things people did every day. Inside, you'll find funny talks between writers and the people who publish their books, poems that tease London streets, jokes about politics and taxes on drinks, and funny stories from government meetings. The pictures go along with the writing, making the jokes even better and showing how the magazine helped people laugh at the problems of the time.
