Description

A facsimile collection of six books which are extracts and/or collection of cartoons from the Victorian satirical magazine FUN published during its peak time in the 1870s and 80s. Decribed as 'Funch' or 'the poor man's Punch', FUN became the most successful rival of Punch, and gained popularity among the people in the lower-middle class. Important source of information for any researchers and students interested in the Victorian social life and the media history.
