Tom getting the best of a Charley [graphic]Cruikshank, George, 1792-1878, printmaker[31 August 1820]eng"Illustration to Pierce Egan's Life in London, page 232. A night scene on the east side of Temple Bar, which frames the Strand and St. Clements in the background, lit by a full moon. Tom (rigjht) overturns a watchman's box from which a poor terrified old man leans out shrieking. A fellow-watchman (left) springs his rattle and shouts. Behind Tom is Jerry, much amused, between two gaily dressed prostitutes who cling to him."--British Museum online catalogueTitle from caption below image.Imprint from later state in the British Museum catalogue.
