Mid-Channel Qualms, signature indistinct, 9 July 1924. Four former Prime Ministers: Asquith, Balfour, Lloyd George and Stanley Baldwin heading to a meeting, aboard a boat, to discuss the possibility of a Channel Tunnel. Photograph from a line drawing originally printed in the Punch and London Charivari periodical in 1924. This is a good example of the skilful artists and the humour and satire of the time.
