1939 "The Fox and the Grapes." Reproduction of a cartoon appearing in Punch July 5, 1939. Bernard Partridge. Unknown source, perhaps North Country Books through Ebay, unknown date.
I am a bit surprised that the fox here is not somehow identified, though everyone reading "Punch" in 1939 would know that the fox is either Germany or Hitler. I wonder if the clot of hair across the fox's brow is not an attempt to make the fox into Hitler. Partridge did a lot of Punch caricatures or cartoons for decades.
