Hardcover. Fair quarter cloth under marbled sides; 24 cm. Lower third of pages heavily dampstained, but not musty and not obscuring text. This satirical weekly - a Danish counterpart to Punch - usually appeared with 8 pages (title-page, columns 1-14). It was first issued on 8 October 1840 with a plain title-page, incorporating from no. 27 the motto 'Ca ira, ca ira' - derived from Benjamin Franklin's response when, as envoy in Paris of the Continental Congress, he was asked about the course of the American Revolutionary War: 'It'll be fine.' The motto then became the refrain in a song of the French Revolution. From no. 95 in 1842 various versions of a privateer, with this motto on a flag, appeared on the title-page - briefly replaced, in this volume on nos. 187 to 223 (and on nos. 224-227 in 1845) with 'CORSAREN' in characters from a devils' alphabet, below a band of three imps flying the pirate flag. -- Mo. 218, under the heading: 'Nationalitetens Portner. Optrin af Gruundtvigs Kaempeliv' gives a caricature of N.F.S. Grundtvig (by Johan Aagaard, named as illustrator from no. 140 in 1843: older brother of landscape artist C.F. Aagaard) and a series of dialogues.
