Bunkers Hill, or, America's head dress [graphic].[19 April 1776]eng"A lady (three-quarter length) in profile to the right. with the enormous coiffure of 1776-7 grotesquely exaggerated. Her hands are in a muff. Her inverted pyramid of hair supports three quasi-circular redoubts surrounded by cannon on which troops are fighting. On each is a flag large out of all proportion to the soldiers. There are also a train of artillery, and a number of tents. All the men in the redoubts are dressed as British soldiers but are firing point-blank at each other; their three flags are decorated respectively with an ape, with two women holding darts of lightning, and with a goose."--British Museum online catalogue"A companion print to British Museum Satires No. 5335. Evidently intended to satirize the fighting at Bunker Hill, 17 June 1775. For similar satires on hair-dressing see British Museum Satires No. 5378, apparently a parody of this print."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Initial letters of publisher's name in imprint form a monogram.Year of publication from the British Museum catalogue.Second of two plates on leaf 56.
