1911réf. 007095London: Punch 1911. This original printed appearance of a Punch cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill comes from the personal collection of Gary L. Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "'All in Due Course. appeared thus on p.101 of the 8 February 1911 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "Catesby Mr. Churchill. 'My liege The Dukes etcetera have been taken.' Richard the Third Mr. Asquith. 'Off with their heads! So much for Dukes etcetera.' Catesby. 'My liege e'en now they prate of self-reform.' Richard the Third. 'Off with their heads! We will reform 'em later.' "Richard The Third" Colley Cibber - "French" version Act IV. Scene 4." Prime Minister Herbert Asquith's Liberal government introduced the Parliament Act to curb the powers of the House of Lords following the clash between the Commons and Lords over the 1909 People's Budget. Churchill was at 'point' for much of the attack on the Lords. Here the message is: show them no mercy. In Shakespeare's Richard III Catesby is one of the King's ardent supporters. Punch or The London Charivari began featuring Churchill cartoons in 1900 when his political career was just beginning. That political career would last two thirds of a century see him occupy Cabinet office during each of the first six decades of the twentieth century carry him twice to the premiership and further still into the annals of history as a preeminent statesman. And throughout that time Punch satirized Churchill in cartoons more than 600 of them the work of more than 50 different artists. It was a near-perfect relationship between satirists and subject. That Churchill was distinctive in both persona and physical appearance helped make him easy to caricature. To his persona and appearance he added myriad additional satirical temptations not just props like his cigars siren suits V-sign and hats but also a variety of ancillary avocations and vocations like polo painting brick-laying and writing. All these were skewered as well. Some Punch cartoons were laudatory some critical and many humorous like the man himself. Nearly always Churchill was distinctly recognizable a larger-than-life character whose presence caricature served only to magnify. Punch unknown
1931réf. 007155London: Punch 1931. This original printed appearance of a Punch cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill comes from the personal collection of Gary L. Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "CONVERSATION FOR TWO." appeared thus on p.239 of the 4 March 1931 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "Mr. Winston Churchill. 'I HOPE I INTRUDE.'" The First Round Table Conference November 1930-January 1931 convened to consider government reform in India included Mohandas Gandhi and Secretary of State for India William Wedgwood Benn both depicted in this cartoon. Churchill is the only one not in contemporary garb dressed instead in old-fashioned riding clothes perhaps suggesting antiquated views. Clearly he is not an invited or welcome guest to the conversation. In 1931 Churchill had begun what would become a decade spent out of power and out of favor frequently at odds with both his own Conservative Party and prevailing public sentiment. In early 1931 Churchill broke with his Party over the India Bill. Churchill spent formative time as a young 19th century cavalry officer fighting on the northwest Indian frontier about which he would write his first published book. He certainly did not adopt an early progressive attitude toward relinquishing control over the crown jewel of Britain's colonial empire. Nonetheless it is instructive to remember that many of Churchill's dire warnings about Indian independence proved prophetic. Churchill had warned that too swift a British withdrawal from India would lead to bloody civil war and sectarian strife between Hindus and Muslims Hindu domination and destabilizing political balkanization of the subcontinent. All these predictions came to pass and to a considerable extent persist today. Punch or The London Charivari began featuring Churchill cartoons in 1900 when his political career was just beginning. That political career would last two thirds of a century see him occupy Cabinet office during each of the first six decades of the twentieth century carry him twice to the premiership and further still into the annals of history as a preeminent statesman.

Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "THE PASSER-BY." appeared thus on p.71 of the 21 July 1926 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "Mr. Churchill to M. Caillaux. 'JUMP UP MATE; THE OLD MOKE'LL MANAGE SOMEHOW.' Uncle Sam a realist. 'VERY TOUCHING. I'VE HEARD THAT THIS KIND OF FELLOW-FEELING MAY OFTEN BE FOUND AMONG THE POOR.'" Joseph Caillaux was a French politician who led the Free Radical Party and in this cartoon represents his countrymen traveling on foot. Churchill - then Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer - is riding a cart pulled by a beleaguered donkey "Old Moke" labeled "BRITISH TAXPAYER. In he background representing the United States Uncle Sam whizzes by in a motor car puffing on a cigar supercilious and making a snide comment.

Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "WORK FOR THE AXE." appeared thus on p.703 of the 1 July 1925 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "Mr. Churchill. 'SO FAR SO GOOD. NOW FOR THE REGIONS OF ETERNAL ICE.'" In the image Winston dressed as a circa 1920s mountaineer stands leaning on a pickaxe labeled "FINANCE BILL 3RD READING" while regarding a distant high peak labeled "STATE EXTRAVAGANCE". Churchill as Chancellor of the Exchequer was seeing his first budget through Parliament. Issues being hotly debated ranged from war debt payments to the U.S. the cost of social programs such as unemployment insurance health care payments new taxes and on whom industry versus individual consumer and the recent reintroduction of the Gold Standard.
