Description: It is hard to escape the legacy of the Punch Magazine. From 1841 to 2002, the magazine cast a satirical eye on life in Britain. It charted the interests, concerns and frustrations of the country and today it stands as an invaluable resource not just as cartoon art and satire, but for social historians.Full size: 8 x 10 1/2 inches, including margins. Image shown is slightly cropped. Source: PUNCH Magazine, February 25, 1920. Condition: a very good copy -- light wear, still bright paper, clean, lays flat for easy framing, verso is blank.The Irremovables. Turkey (to his old patron in Holland). "So, we're both remaining, what?" Voice from the other end. "Yes, but YOU've got to behave." (Turkey on the phone to Wilhelm II in exile after WW1)--Upon losing the support of the military and his subjects, Wilhelm II abdicated his throne and fled to exile in the Netherlands. He remained there during the German occupation in World War II, and died in 1941.--In the Conference of London, (12 February – 10 April 1920), following World War I, leaders of Britain, France, and Italy met to discuss the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire and the negotiation of agreements that would become the Treaty of Sèvres. --The Treaty of Sèvres was a 1920 treaty signed between the Allies of World War I and the Ottoman Empire. The treaty ceded large parts of Ottoman territory to France, the United Kingdom, Greece and Italy and created large occupation zones within the Ottoman Empire. It was one of a series of treaties that the Central Powers signed with the Allied Powers after their defeat in World War I. Hostilities had already ended with the Armistice of Mudros.
