In Punch’s Pocket Book: Archiving an Archive

This blog documents the progress of the international digital project Punch’s Pocket Book Archive, which will ultimately create a fully searchable, open-access archive for all volumes of Punch’s Pocket Book (1843-1881). This annual notebook combined the practical (calendar, accounting grids, diary) with serious information (overview of government, laws, useful addresses in London) and light amusements (stories, songs, ballads, and cartoons). Portable and practical, this annual publication of the humorous and incisive Punch, or the London Charivari (1841-2002) offers a portal into Victorian era politics, economics, journalism and related publishing practices, visual culture, periodicals, and literature, as well as the quotidian life of its users.
