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.This illustration by Bernard Partridge, from PUNCH Magazine.

Czolgosz was executed seven weeks later on October 29, 1901. While some American anarchists described his action as inevitable, motivated by the country's brutal social conditions, others condemned his actions, arguing that he hindered the movement's goals by damaging its public perception.Over 3,000 Punch cartoons listed for sale, combine orders and save shipping charges.
