Presented here are two of the famous original Vanity Fair caricatures from the late 1800s. Famed British portrait artist Sir Leslie Matthew Ward published caricatures of popular figures of the day for Vanity Fair from 1873 to 1911 - often under the pseudonym SPY. Presented here are the original lithographs two of SPY's golf subjects - Harold Hilton and Horace Hutchinson. The Hilton print is dated July 16, 1903, and the Hutchinson is July 19, 1890. These hard to find prints have been professionally framed to 11 1/2" x 16 5/8".
