DescriptionArtist's proof engraving on paper. ‘Punch Almanack’ is written at the top, partially obscured by a huge fan. It is held by a smartly dressed Mr. Punch holding an enormous quill, decorated with ‘1881’ and a sign of the Zodiac named and illustrated on each fold. A half dressed Victorian lady lies on her side atop a lion rug with a pug next to her, looking across at the smiling Mr Punch. On the lower left an anthropomorphic dog, dressed as a butler, holds a tray.
