Cartoon, The Kaiser's Christmas Dinner in London, WW1

Cartoon, The Kaiser's Coming Christmas Dinner in London: Our Illustrated Menu. The Kaiser had announced his intention of eating his Christmas dinner in London, following a planned invasion during the early stages of the First World War. Dishes on offer, making much of Allied forces, are: Russian Caviare, Belgian Rabbit Pie a la Liege (hard crust), Australian Kangaroo Tail, Indian Curry (served red hot), Gigot de Mouton (New Zealand), Elephant's Foot d'Afrique, Piece de Resistance, Pudding de Noel Anglais, Vins d'Italie, Fromage Cheddar (Canadian), Cafe Francais assez fort. There are Japanese illuminations and fireworks, and a waiter with swords saying Servia Sir to the Kaiser who lies in bed trying to get to sleep, no doubt kept awake by indigestion. Date: September 1914
