The Lion Aroused Illustration On Vintage Book Page Bulwer's Works

We are delighted to offer you this illustration from Punch magazine published in 1884. The book is filled with many charming, vintage illustrations, that we are delighted to bring to you. A witty poem came with it, which we are glad to share part of it with you.

Many have fancied his fighting days over,
Now Leo is up again,
And they'd better be wary who comes in clutch of his claws,
There is spring in those sinews and strength in their ponderous jaws.

This illustration is from John Tenniel, the same illustrator who brought the world Alice In Wonderland.
.
The color of the paper is truly vintage. We did not alter the color of the paper in any way using Photoshop or Picassa.

You are truly getting a piece of history!
