James Morison promoting his alternative medicines; satirised by five vignettes of a fox among geese. The central image is that of a street scene outside the London and British Colleges of Health: James Morison is presented as a fox standing on a box of 'Universal vegetable pills' surrounded by geese, who represent the public; he says "My 'Universal pills' are quite divine! If one don't do, you may take nine." and "Various humorous images of foxes and geese comprising (clock-wise from top left); a fox dressed as an eighteenth century fop offering a glass to a goose wearing a bonnet; a fox butcher, standing outside his shop and offering a dead goose to a vixen dressed in a shawl and bonnet, other poultry hanging outside; a fox in militray uniform and playing on a drum, leading a column of geese; a fox preaching to a congregation of geese; the large central image; a fox in a smart tailcoat advertising his 'Universal Vegetable Pills' to an interested gathering of geese; the 'British College of Health' and the 'London College of Health' beyond, the latter with two well-dressed foxes drinking on a balcony, observed by a crowd of geese (lettered below image "The Fox and Goose"; a short poem or song following)."--British Museum online catalogue
