"Punch, or the London Charivari, May 27, 1914" by Various is a comedic journal filled with funny articles and pictures that make fun of life in England a little over a hundred years ago. The writings and artwork poke harmless fun at society and politics, and its content shows what people thought about at the time it was published. Writers use comedy to discuss anything from reactions to sporting events to opinions about plays, even joking about the worry that eating people would become popular! The magazine uses wit and exaggeration as a mirror to show the amusing side of serious issues before the world changed because of a massive conflict.
