Punch Staff Began With Burnand Burlesque Tale
In London Punch an anecdote tells how Sir Francis Burnand joined the staff after proposing a Journal style burlesque on contemporary sensational novels. The first installment, illustrated by Gilbert De Maurier and Keene, alarmed Punch’s senior owner who thought a Journal page had appeared in Punch. Thackeray later welcomed Burnand at a weekly dinner, calling him the new boy. A merchant who rose to wealth warned against idleness and preferring thought over reading. The British Medical Journal cites imaginary cures and questions whether medicine should dismiss pointless remedies when real means fail.
