A whimsical journey through time: From the tragic end of a child's game depicted in "The Tragic End of a Child (Colour Litho)" to the playful mishap on the comic postcard "Meeting on the dodgems, Date: 20th century. " Witness the thrilling Eights Week at Oxford University in both color photo and engraving, where the returning boat which bumped triumphantly marks a victory. Humpty and Dumpty the rabbits, lost in their own world, mirror the chaos of John Morley MP tripping over Charles Frederic Hamond MP in a political blunder. Amidst it all, a French WW2 propaganda postcard leaks the vulnerability of the Siegfried Line. And in the midst of it all, a reminder from the wise Lear, "A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool. " #Nonsense #Gong
