Summary

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 159, August 4th, 1920" by Various is a funny magazine that shows what life was like in the early 1900s, specifically in 1920s Britain. It makes fun of what was going on in society and politics after World War I, using jokes, pictures, and poems to poke fun at normal life. The stories talk about things like train ticket prices, problems caused by the dry weather in India and Africa, and even a Christmas card that arrived late. The characters are regular people, politicians, and made-up characters that represent different types of people in society. The stories are light and funny, and the magazine makes readers laugh and think about the funny things and problems happening in society at the time.
