Punch dinner ticket : [London], to Charles Keene, 1871 July 22.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/458315720

A printed invitation with the dates inserted in an unidentified hand: "The pleasure of your Company is requested on Wednesday next, the 26th inst., at half-past six sharp." The upper half of the dinner ticket includes a caricature (initialed "D.M.") of some of the members of Punch depicted as bats or birds in flight. On the left a man dressed as a cook rings a bell and holds a large spoon. A bird with the head of Shirley Brooks, editor of Punch, perches on the cook's head holding a butter knife. The flying Punch members have been labeled in ink (by Joseph Crawhall?) as C[harles] K[eene], [R.F.] Sketchley, [F.C.] Burnand, Percival Leigh, John Tenniel, G[eorge] du Maurier, Horace Mayhew, and Tom Taylor. "Charles Keene Esq." is written at the bottom of the invitation.
