FURNISS
(Harry, 1854-1925, Caricaturist for 'Punch' 1880-1894)
Delightful Illustrated Autograph Letter Signed to Barclay
With an amusing picture of Furniss flying with angel's wings, titled "On the Wire", the letter says that he has "been travelling about for the last fortnight & just arrived here, Brading I. of Wight to join Mrs Furniss & family. They had received your very kind present of Grouse in my absence and much enjoyed it & I write to thank you heartily - although rather late in the day. I see by the label the Grouse comes from Cere & Mildmay but as your card was found inside I take it you have been the kind sender ...", and then saying that he is off to Leeds for the "meeting of the British Convention", 3 sides 8vo., no place but Isle of Wight, 27th August
Towards the end of the nineteenth century, the artistic roster of Punch Magazine included Harry Furniss, Linley Sambourne, Francis Carruthers Gould, and Phil May.
