Boney bothered, or, An unexpected meeting [graphic].

"Napoleon bursts out of a terrestrial globe on which a map is freely sketched. One leg is still below the surface; he puts the other on the 'East-Indies' close to 'Bengal'. He is astounded to find himself face to face with John Bull (right) who also emerges from the globe, a half length figure with a huge cudgel in his right. hand. From John's coat-pocket project papers: 'Secret Intelligence'. Napoleon in his dismay drops his sword and a 'Plan of Operations in the Eas [sic] Indies'. He says: "Begar Monsieur Jean Bull again! Vat - you know I was come here!" John answers: "To be sure I did - for all your Humbug deceptions I smoked your intentions and have brought my Oak Twig with me, so now you may go back again." Napoleon wears an enormous feathered bicorne. On the lower part of the design 'France' and 'The Tight Little Island' are shown."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state
