Cartoon, The Great Derby Race for Eighteen Hundred and Fifty-One. Mr Punch is out front, followed by Joseph Paxton, and then various jockeys from all nations riding a variety of animals - a bull, an elephant, a pig, a camel. The whole thing seems to be taking place in front of the Crystal Palace, the site of the Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, which opened in 1851.
