| Summary |
"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 99, September 13, 1890" by Various is a humorous periodical publication from the late 19th century (Victorian era) that showcases a collection of satirical articles, illustrations, and poems. As part of the Punch magazine series, this volume continues its tradition of witty commentary on contemporary social and political issues through parody and satire, reflecting the humor of the time. The content of this volume includes a variety of humorous sketches and poems that touch on themes such as holiday travels, cricket, social pretensions, and quips about medical officers and the military. Notable pieces feature an unimpressed travel account of a trip to St. Margaret's Bay, the cricket success of the "Young Zummerset" team, and satirical dialogues on the rights and recognition of army surgeons. Each segment is laced with clever wordplay and societal observations, encapsulating the unique blend of humor and critique characteristic of Punch's style, making it a delightful exploration of life in Victorian England.
