RARE 1891 PUNCH Cartoons - UNCLE SAM - African-Americans - Native Americans

Description: It is hard to escape the legacy of the Punch Magazine. From 1841 to 2002, the magazine cast a satirical eye on life in Britain. It charted the interests, concerns and frustrations of the country and today it stands as an invaluable resource not just as cartoon art and satire, but as primary source material for historians.Illustrator: John Tenniel (illustrator of the Alice in Wonderland), from British Punch humor/satire magazine, January 17, 1891, pulled from the magazine, not a modern reproduction. Size 8 x 10 1/2 inches. Condition: excellent, still bright and clean, no handling wear, lays flat for easy framing; backside is blank. Includes a separate page with accompanying poem. Note the name "Jonathan" is an earlier name for Uncle Sam, still used by the British in Punch cartoons."ROUGE ET NOIR!"“ROUGE ET NOIR!” OR, JONATHAN’S PERPLEXING PROBLEM.(SOME WAY AFTER HOSEA BIGLOW’S “JONATHAN TO JOHN.") Jonathan (who has been reading the Articles on “The Negro Question in the United States,” in the English “Times”) loq.:—­ It may be ez you’re right, JOHN, And both my hands are full; You know ez I can fight, JOHN, (I’ve wiped out “Sitting Bull"). Ole Uncle S. sez he, “I guess We see our fix,” sez he. “The ‘Thunderer’s’ paw lays down the law, Accordin’ to J.B. To square it’s left to me!” Blood ain’t so cool as ink, JOHN; Big words are easy wrote; The “coons”—­well, you don’t think, JOHN, I’ll let ’em cut my throat. Ole Uncle S. sez he, “I guess Ghost-dance must stop,” sez he. “Suppose the ‘braves’ and black ex-slaves Hed b’longed to ole J.B. Insted of unto me?” Ten art’cles in your Times, JOHN, Hev giv me good advice. I mind th’ old Slavery crimes, JOHN. I don’t need tellin’ twice. Ole Uncle S. sez he, “I guess, I only guess,” sez he, “Seven million blacks on his folks’ backs Would kind o’ rile J.B. Ez much ez it riles me!” The Red Man,—­well, I s’pose, JOHN, We’ll hev to wipe him aout. Sech pizonous trash ez those, JOHN, The world kin do without. Ole Uncle S. sez he, “I guess Injuns must go,” sez he. “COOPER’s Red Man won’t fit our plan, Though he once witched J.B. As once he fetched e’en me!”. I have other hard-to-find original Punch cartoon illustrations for sale; combine orders with no extra shipping fees.Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002. A very British institution renowned internationally for its wit and irreverence, it helped to coin the term "cartoon" in its modern sense as a humorous illustration. QUESTIONS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME.
