- Abstract:
- "A man sells rabbits at the door of a corner-house (right); an ugly old woman sniffs at a rabbit, saying, "Sweet indeed why it smells Quite Strong"; a pretty young maidservant stands beside her. The man answers: "Yes Ma'am and so would you were you held in the same position". He holds the rabbits slung to the ends of a pole held across his shoulder, with another bunch in his left hand. A dog bites at the rabbits behind the man's back to the amusement of a chimney-sweep's boy (left), who passes by, bent under his bag of soot. The houses on the opposite side of the cobbled street are old-fashioned, gabled, and irregular; against one (left) is a bulk or stall inscribed 'Coblers Work Done here', the cobbler leans out to talk to a woman. Next is the sign of 'The Flowerpot'."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A view of a fair with the line of booths on the left and nearer the spectator. An embryo 'Great Wheel' is in action on the right, with four cars (or boxes with half doors) slung from cross-beams which pivet on a post, the motion being given by a crank at the hub, worked by a man standing on a little platform. Each car contains one elderly occupant, except one which has broken: a young girl falls through the air, a youth lies on his back below her. Spectators register alarm or amusement. An oyster-woman looks up from her stall (left). A well-dressed thief picks the pocket of a man absorbed in the accident, passing the plunder to a confederate leaning from the window of an inn on the extreme left. This has the sign of the crown, inscribed 'T. Slano'. In a first-floor window a couple are embracing. Adjacent booths belong to 'Polito': Harlequin, Punch, and other figures are performing, watched by a few spectators. In the foreground (right) a fat women sells sticks to men and boys who throw at objects (? gingerbread) poised on spikes. In the background is a rustic horse-race."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

- Abstract:
- "The booths are in the background (right) across a large field in which are the foreground figures. The horse has broken loose from a two-wheeled cart, heavily overladen with visitors to the fair, who have been thrown headlong to the ground, where eight men and women lie in a heap, flourishing arms and legs, either despairingly or pugnaciously; one man has remained in the front of the cart and laughs at their plight. Another man holds the broken rope harness of the kicking horse. Two couples (left) run joyfully towards the disaster, an unrehearsed sport of the fair: two country people in front, an over-dressed and elderly couple behind. In front (right) are the bones of a horse. In the background is a line of tents and booths before which stand spectators. On the stages of adjacent booths persons are posturing, and an acrobat swings on a slack-rope. The names over the booths are 'Polito', 'Sanders', 'Guny', 'Ast . . [? Astley]'. Farther off (left) a horse- or ass-race is in progress, indicated by tiny figures."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A corner of a theatre made of timber fills the greater part of the design. Flames stream from windows on the first floor under which runs a balcony giving access to the door. From the door a staircase slants to the ground. A terrified crowd rush through the doorway and precipitate themselves headlong down the stairs, to fall in a heap at the bottom. A young woman drops from the balcony, two men standing below grip her legs, an elderly musician assists her, losing his fiddle. Another woman climbs over the balcony rail. There are other (comic) incidents. The theatre is placarded 'Cockburns Company'. A large playbill is inscribed 'Last Night--Pizzarro [see British Museum Satires No. 9396, &c.]--Don Juan--A Shower of Real Fire and a View of the Infernal Regions'. In the background (left) fugitives run in frantic haste across the grass towards a row of booths, inscribed 'Pinello', 'Genello Compan[y]', 'Cromer', where players and spectators watch the conflagration."--British Museum online catalogue
