InterWar cartoons from Punch magazine by Leonard Raven Hill
Imparity; or, a Bit Above Par. Signor Mussolini (suffering from "sea-fever"). "In the words of the poet Laureate of Britain, once ruler of the waves, 'I must go down to the sea again,' and whose is the sea?" Chorus of Fascists. "Ours!" Signor Mussolini. "So be it." [The concluding sentence of the above speech, together with the subsequent dialogues is taken from a report of Signor Mussolini's recent appearance at Leghorn.] (an InterWar cartoon shows Mussolini wading further into the fascist sea with his trident)
