EDITORS COMMENTS
Charley Tell-Tale: Keeping the P.P. Gents on the Broad Grin with his Laughable Anecdotes from Pierce Egans Anecdotes of the Turf, The Chase, The Ring, and The Stage (Colour Plate: Charley Tell-Tale, 1827) This charming and humorous color plate, titled "Charley Tell-Tale: Keeping the P.P. Gents on the Broad Grin with his Laughable Anecdotes from Pierce Egans Anecdotes of the Turf, The Chase, The Ring, and The Stage," dates back to 1827. The image features the popular character, Charley Tell-Tale, regaling a group of gentlemen with amusing anecdotes from Pierce Egans renowned collection of stories. Pierce Egan (1772-1849) was a celebrated British journalist and sports writer, known for his wit and insight into the worlds of horse racing, hunting, boxing, and the theater. His collection of anecdotes, published in various installments between 1828 and 1841, became a staple of Victorian literature and entertainment. In this image, Charley Tell-Tale, with his distinctive top hat and cane, sits amongst a group of well-dressed gentlemen, all intently listening to his tales. Their broad grins and animated expressions suggest that they are thoroughly enjoying the stories, which no doubt contained a mix of humor, intrigue, and insider knowledge. The color plate, which is part of the extensive Mary Evans Prints Online collection, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the popularity of Egan's anecdotes and the role of storytelling in Victorian society. It also highlights the importance of humor and entertainment in the daily lives of the upper classes, who would have relished the opportunity to be regaled with amusing tales from the world of sport and the stage.
