No Binding. Etat : Very Good. "HB" (John Doyle 1797-1868) (illustrateur). A Ducotés lithograph pencil drawing political cartoon on heavy paper published by Thomas Mclean 30th March, 1837, (16 1/2" x 11 3/8""). Depicts a cab similar to a Hansom driven by Daniel O'Connell and carrying Lord John Russell proclaiming ""The Sweet little XCherub that sets up aloft takes care of the fate of Poor Jack". [John Doyle was born in Dublin and moved to London in 1822 where he initially worked as a portrait lithographer. In 1827 Doyle began publishing political prints anonymously. From 1829-1851 Doyle published his well-known Political Sketches series, signing his work with the initials "HB" to hide his identity.] [QP].
