Description
A stout London wife talks to a pawnbroker. The woman, standing on the right, is wearing a hat with feathers and a voluminous dress. She instructs the pawnbroker:
"You must know Mr Gripe I vish to go to Veymouth for a Month or two - therefore for the sake of convenience I shall leave a small service of plate in your care till I return."
The pawnbroker, a gaunt figure, in a long coat, glasses and cap, replies:
"You may depend on the Goods being very secure in my hands Ma'am - I am sorry to lose so good a Customer but hope to have the pleasure of seeing you again at the Three Blue Balls as soon as you come back."
