TENNIEL, Sir John (1820-1914).?Group of 7 Original Pencil Sketches for?Punch Magazine.?[London: Punch Magazine, ca. 1880s]. Pencil sketches on textured paper on various satirical topics, various characters including: a Native American maiden, Britannia, and one character that resembles Queen Victoria. Each sketch with Tenniel's monogram at the bottom. All matted. Sights generally 8 x 6". Mat sizes generally 12 x 10". Toned, foxed, soiled, some occasional fading, some wear to mats. Very good. Tenniel is, of course, most famous for illustrating Lewis Carroll's?Alice in Wonderland?books, creating the look of those characters, all of which are still recognizable today.
