Punch (magazine) Summary

English illustrated periodical published 1841–1992 and revived in 1996 with a revised format.

Initially a weekly radical paper, it became famous for its satiric humour, caricatures, and cartoons. Among its famous early staff members were William Thackeray and John Tenniel. A cover drawing by Richard Doyle was used continuously from 1849 to 1956, when each issue's cover was made different, though the traditional figures of Punch and his dog Toby usually appeared somewhere.

This is the complete article, containing 73 words (approx. 1 page at 300 words per page).
