Picture No 10910298
Date 1915
Description Where Did That One Go To? by Bruce Bairnsfather
Details

The very first cartoon published in The Bystander by Bruce Bairnsfather (later Captain) of the 1st Battalion, Royal Warwickshire Regiment. The cartoon was drawn from experience after the cottage in which he was sheltering near St. Yvon was shelled. The picture was accompanied by the explanatory caption; 'I have drawn it as well as I can under somewhat difficult circumstances, and, I may say, from first-hand impressions.' The picture was the first of hundreds Bairnsfather would produce for The Bystander. Many of them would later be reproduced in special portfolios called Fragments from France as well as on a vast range of merchandise.
