The stamp-fiends' raid (in Philatelia's cause) a philatelic phantasy

Imeson, William E author · 1903 · London H. Cox · 5 pictures

A comic philatelic fantasy published in London in 1903 by H. Cox and written by William E. Imeson for stamp collectors, it is told through pen-and-ink cartoons with short verse captions. The pictures are loose, sketchy line drawings with caricatured figures, speech-like lettering and small props such as envelopes, a pocket watch and stamp albums, giving a designer a playful model for satirical cartoon vignettes and hand-lettered captions.
