"Design in an irregular oval border to which four scrolls are attached: ‘To the Work House, To the Mad-House, To the Gaol, The Gibbet'. The shop is ornate and pilastered, lit by a double gas chandelier. The customers, dregs of the town, stand at the counter, within the toothed circle of a huge man-trap on the floor. A drunken man in the remnants of fashionable clothes, takes a glass from the barmaid (right). She is outwardly comely, but her fashionable dress, a smiling mask, and gloves, conceal a skeleton, revealed by a skull which grins from her shoulder, and the bones of a foot and ankle. Beside her is a book: ‘Open Gin Shop The Way to Wealth'. An old hag drinks, another gives gin to an infant in her arms; a little girl drains a glass, and a tiny child clamours at the counter. On the counter stands a small cask on which sits a skeleton: Bacchus with bottle and glass. On the left stands Death (who has set the trap), a skeleton dressed as a London watchman; he holds up an hour-glass in place of lantern; he holds a javelin which points ominously to a trap-door in the boards at his feet. He says: ‘I shall have them all dead drunk presently! They have nearly had their last glass'. On the extreme right behind the barmaid is a doorway framing a ring of little demons dancing round a spirit-still; a skull grins from the transparent retort; below the floor is a dark space: ‘Spirit Vaults'. The casks in the shop are coffins. A huge one is ‘Old Tom' [gin, especially if good and strong]. The others are ‘Deady's Cordial' [Deady was a well-known distiller], ‘Kill Devil' [rum, especially if new], ‘Blue Ruin' [bad gin], ‘Gin & Bitters'. On the wall are two placards: [1] a playbill, ‘Drury Lane Theatre, Road to Ruin [cf. British Museum Satires No. 8073] --Life in London [cf. British Museum Satires No. 14320], Devil to Pay' [cf.
