Size 8 x 10 1/2 inches. Condition: excellent, bright and clean, no handling wear, lays flat for easy framing; backside is blank.FRANCE TO PARIS: "Keep quiet, you madmen! If you go on making such an exhibition of yourselves, you'll ruin mine"--Marianne, personification of France, chides the unruly crowd during the Dreyfus affair. --The Exposition Universelle of 1900, better known in English as the 1900 Paris Exposition, was a world's fair held in Paris, France, from 14 April to 12 November 1900, to celebrate the achievements of the past century and to accelerate development into the next. I have other hard-to-find original Punch cartoon illustrations for sale, including the Dreyfus Affair; combine orders with no extra shipping fees.Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002. A very British institution renowned internationally for its wit and irreverence, it helped to coin the term "cartoon" in its modern sense as a humorous illustration. QUESTIONS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME.
