Image
Front and back of a one-page menu for a Savage Club dinner, entitled "Joe Harker in the chair," with a cartoon by George Whitelaw, with four men in suits entering a room filled with men in suits and shirtsleeves sitting on, beating with sticks, strangling, or otherwise trouncing their opponents. One man at the top of the frame observes the activity, perched atop a painting on the wall. The caption reads, "Inopportune arrival of distinguished guests at the inaugural meeting of the Savage Club Cricket Society". The menu is autographed with three signatures.
