Smithfield sharpers, or, The countrymen defrauded [graphic]Sherwin, J. K. (John Keyse), 1751-1790, printmaker[10 April 1787]eng"Seven men (three-quarter length) are grouped round a card-table in a Smithfield tavern. One (right), young and innocent, inspects his cards; beside him an older countryman lies back asleep (right), his dog resting his head on his knee. The other gambler (left), holding his cards, looks at his victim. Three onlookers have crafty expressions. A fat man, smoking, approaches with a bowl of punch. In the bar (left) a fat woman chalks up a score. Coins, a watch, and pocket-book are on the table. A broken mirror and a picture of a horse decorate the walls."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Twelve lines of verse below image, six lines on each side of title: Old Trusty with his town made friends ...Mounted on leaf 10 of volume 3 of 14 volumes.
