Known for its witty illustrations and humorous commentary, the magazine addresses contemporary social, political, and cultural issues through a comedic lens. This particular volume captures the essence of the Victorian era, emphasizing the societal norms, quirks, and the lively public life of that time. The content of this volume includes a variety of sketches, poems, and anecdotes that reflect on the eventful drawing-room day at Buckingham Palace, providing a comedic commentary on the crowd's reactions and the pomp surrounding the royal festivities. Readers are given a glimpse of the social dynamics at play, represented through dialogues that reveal the attitudes of different social classes. The entries also satirize political events, such as Parliament proceedings and public responses to notable figures like H.M. Stanley, while cleverly critiquing the absurdities of both the elite and the ordinary citizenry, thereby underscoring the humor that can be found in everyday life during that era.
