Abstract:
"All hunt on velocipedes; they advance (left to right) in two streams on each side of a grass plot, while in the background the huntsmen are just behind the dogs, chasing (right to left) the stag. A dandy, his machine in the air, falls head first on a woman who also obstructs a lean tailor, with shears and card of patterns in his pocket. A bare-legged chimneysweeper follows, his brush tied to the back of his machine. A lean barber and a grotesquely fat butcher follow, with a man in a smock. On the extreme left a dustman in fan-tailed hat rides with a woman seated behind him and ringing his bell. The figures in the second column are on a small scale but well characterized. Accidents and collisions occur. Two dandies (right) in the middle distance (right) are turning to follow the hounds."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A scene in Smithfield Market. Henry Hunt, with the head of an ass, addresses cattle, horses, sheep, and pigs, all on their hind-legs, from a large open cart. He stands in front of a large armchair placed across the end of the cart, his arms raised oratorically, saying, "I shall be ambitious indeed if I thought my Bray could be heard by the immense and respectable multitude I have the Honour to address--" At his right hand flies a large red flag (see British Museum Satires No. 12999, &c.) inscribed 'Universal Suffrage', at his left is a corresponding blue one, inscribed 'Peace And Goodw[ill]'. These are lashed to the back of his chair. Beside each flag-staff is a smaller pole with a notice: 'Order'. The animals fill the square; from their heads float the words: "Hear Hear"; "Hear! Hear!"; "Bravo"; "Bravo! Bravo!"; "Excellent!" The windows of the adjacent houses are filled with tiny spectators; others watch from the roofs. Under the cart lies a drover's dog holding a bâton in its teeth and wearing a ribbon inscribed 'Usher of the Black' [Rod]."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Vansittart, in his Chancellor of the Exchequer's gown, bestrides a large green bag, representing the budget, in shape rather like a gourd or cucumber, which rests on the pole of a velocipede (see British Museum Satires No. 13399) with two small and solid wheels, one inscribed 'Pensions', the other 'Places'. The bag: 'Bugget, Tea Tax, New Malt Tax, New Tobaco Tax, Coffee Tax'. A smaller bag has fallen from the machine (right): 'a few Odd Thousands for the New Tailors' [see British Museum Satires No. 13237, &c.]. Vansittart, leaning forward almost horizontally, steers his hobby-horse straight at John Bull (left) whom he (acrobatically) kicks in the mouth, knocking him over. He says: "Take care John I do'nt rightly know how to manage my new Hobby it is rather a Heavy Machine if you dont go out of the Road to Bottany Bay or Amercia [sic] I can't answer for the Consequnce [sic]." John, a fat drink-blotched 'cit' in patched clothes, falls backwards, exclaiming: "What the Devil the fellow at [sic] are you going to cram all this Down my Throat Zounds you will choak me." Behind John and on the extreme left is the sea-shore with a large sign-post pointing one way 'To America', the other 'To Starvation'. A ship lies at anchor; tiny figures, including a woman clasping an infant, flee in terror from Vansittart, towards 'America'. On the right is another sign-post, pointing (left) 'To Ruin'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The shield is a dandy's tail-coat with a pinched waist, in back view, the sleeves hooked over the left arm of the dexter supporter, and the right arm of the sinister supporter, these being dandies with the heads of apes and wearing fool's caps. From each drooping sleeve hangs a short (yellow) glove. The coat is divided by its seams, the centre-seam bisects the small figure of a dandy who is half-man, half-woman. The coat is further decorated by butterflies, stays, shirt-frill, &c. On the coat-tails are a (small) pair of breeches and two large pins. A chain is slung over the sleeves and hangs across the hips, supporting an eye-glass. The crest is a pair of tightly laced stays supporting a bulging bust, an elongated cravat, and high collar framing a wig-block with blank features and large ass's ears, and surmounted by a bell-shaped top-hat. Each supporter holds a tubular bottle of 'Eau de Cologne'. The motto: 'Dandi, Dando, Dandum' is on a scroll formed of a widely extended pair of (loose) white trousers; from this hangs, like the Order of the Fleece, a small dog. This is: 'Order of Puppyism suspended in French Siffener' [sic]. The coat is also held erect by a centre pole, and by two spurred boots, sole upwards, each resting on a toe of one of the supporters who are poised mincingly on the trousers. Below the design: 'Coat of Arms. Azure. The Sexes impaled improper between two Butterflies--Two flanches; on the dexter [i.e. sinister] flanch three pair of Stays, argent, the sinister flanch charged with Rouge Pomatm & smellg bottle, On the Canton, Dexter [sinister] a frill rampant in the sinister Canton a false collar rampant--small cloaths passive in pile supported by pins--Supporters--Two Monkies--proper-- Crest, a pr of Stays full padded--supporting a Cravat & Collar Rampant proper, holding a blockhead argent & gules, winged with asses ears proper the whole under cover of a Sable Bever'."--British Museum online catalogue
