Summary "Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 99, August 16, 1890" is a periodical publication featuring a collection of humorous articles and illustrations created by various authors during the late 19th century (Victorian era). As a satirical magazine, it covers a wide range of contemporary social issues, political satire, and cultural commentary through the lens of humor and parody. The likely topic of this edition revolves around themes of British society, such as sports, politics, and social hierarchies. The content of this volume includes a vivid portrayal of the "Spurious Sportsman," a satirical character who exaggerates his sporting achievements and pretends to belong to the elite circle of athletes despite minimal real experience. The various pieces within the publication also comment on contemporary politics, societal norms, and offer humorous takes on the behaviors and characteristics of certain social classes. From discussions of parliamentary phrases to light-hearted critiques of societal figures, the magazine provides a witty and entertaining reflection of the era's attitudes and challenges, effectively capturing the spirit of its time.
