Two woodcuts and one facsimile print of a coloured pencil and watercolour sketch (Chesterton), limited editions signed by the artist, in original publisher's wrapper. Sheets c. 365 x 275mm. Paper age toned.
Caricatures of three literary giants of the age, George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), Gilbert Keith ('G.K.') Chesterton (1874 - 1936), and Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946). All signed in pencil by Joseph Simpson (1879 - 1939), painter and etcher of portraits and sporting subjects. Annotated and initialled by the publisher on wrapper No. '71' of an edition limited to 175 copies. The collection presented in rough boards with the publisher's original advertisement attached. Simpson was born in Carlisle and studied art at Glasgow School of Art. He became a close friend of D.Y. Cameron and was elected RBA in 1909. Simpson designed covers for Edinburgh publishers and was a prolific designer of bookplates. In 1918 he became an official war artist for the RAF and was stationed in France. Simpson was already forty-five when he took up etching in 1925, at the height of the boom period for the medium. His first twenty or so plates were etched with a gramophone needle and printed by the artist himself on the small press lent to him by a local Carlisle printing firm. His first exhibition of etchings took place in Glasgow at Wishart Brown in March 1926. His friend Frank Brangwyn wrote the catalogue introduction. A second highly successful show was staged in November 1926 by Alex, Reid and Lefevre in London. Simpson exhibited in Munich, Venice, Florence & Stockholm.

A Ticket for a Feast or Who dines with Duke Humphry. N.B, A Ticket will be Published every Year as Long as the Fast Lasts.
Published April 1st 1745 According to Act.
Rare engraving. Sheet 285 x 350mm, 11¼ x 13¾". Some restoration.
A political satire, supposed to be an admission ticket for a feast, but the expression 'to dine with Duke Humphry' means to do without dinner. Around the edge 'No Balls No Dinner' is repeated above, and 'For the Grandeur of the City' down the sides. It contains portraits of four men, here named 'Rare Shoe man' (correctly 'Rare Show Man') carrying a music box, 'Sir Silkington', 'Cacafogo' & 'Sir Lutestring'. The figure at the centre, Cacafogo (i.e. a hot-tempered person) could possibly be Alderman William Benn ('Benjamin' being the next word). We have found 'Sir Silkington' being used in a satire of Granville Leveson-Gower (1721-1803), Lord Trentham and later 1st Marquess of Stafford, who had just become an MP the year before.
BM Satire: 2632.
