Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 108, April 27, 1895

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 108, April 27, 1895" edited by Sir Francis Burnand is a collection of comical criticisms from a late 1800s magazine, using funny stories, pictures, and short plays to poke fun at the way people lived, what they believed, and what was happening in the news back then. The writings include everything from making jokes about marriage problems and silly business ideas to making light of things like volunteering for the army. The magazine uses clever jokes and funny poems to talk about what was new, how other countries saw them, and the funny side of everyday life in London, giving readers a look into what made people laugh and think during that time.
