Mr. Punch's model music-hall songs & dramas

About this film

LibriVox recording of Mr. Punch's model music-hall songs & dramas by F. Anstey. Read in English by Don W. Jenkins F. Anstey was the nom de plume of Thomas Anstey Guthrie, a Londoner who was trained for the bar but found success as a writer of humorous pieces for Punch and humorous novels. Mr. Punch's Model Music Hall is a collection of humorous pieces written for Punch, divided into songs and dramas. In his usual fashion, Mr. Anstey captured the tone of his times and then exaggerated whatever was already absurd to entertain and give pointed commentary at the same time. - Summary by Don W.
