All the rumours
All the rumours is a 1916 London collection of wartime caricatures and comic sketches by Reginald Arkell and Alfred Leete, published by Duckworth & Co. for a British public reading about the First World War. The pictures are loose pen-and-ink cartoons of stout, bewhiskered and bustling civilians, with cross-hatched skirts and dark wood-cut style blocks, offering a designer clear models for quick comic character types and bold black-and-white spot illustration.
