Description
John Leech (29 August 1817 – 29 October 1864) was a British caricaturist and illustrator . [1] He was best known for his work for Punch , a humorous magazine for a broad middle-class audience, combining verbal and graphic political satire with light social comedy. Leech catered to contemporary prejudices, such as anti-Americanism and antisemitism and supported acceptable social reforms. Leech's critical yet humorous cartoons on the Crimean War helped shape public attitudes toward heroism, warfare, and Britons' role in the world. [2] [3] Great condition for its 140 years age. Light spotting of pages. Marbled covers and endpapers. Leather spine and cover corners. Artwork of John Leech throughout. Binding is strong. No loose pages.

I’ve only just started selling here on eBay, but I’ll be uploading 1000s of items (mostly collectible and/or rare books) over the next year. give my eBay account a follow to periodically get alerted when new items are uploaded.
