These playing cards show in caricature a well-known person from the Victorian era in Great Britain. The characters who are lampooned and the dated style of the illustrations suggest that they were drawn in around 1880. In this case the character is Benjamin Disraeli, prominent politician and favourite of Queen Victoria. Benjamin Disraeli (1804 – 1881). Professor of the difficult art of how to do nothing. Disraeli first became Prime Minister of his own government in 1868. The caption may refer to the time before 1880 when Disraeli angered farmers by refusing to reinstate the Corn Laws, despite poor harvests. This game is attributed to games manufacturer Multum In Parvo ('much in a small space'). The company formed in the 1890s at 144 Falkland Road, Hornsey, London, N8. In 1931 the company was liquidated following almost continuous financial difficulties throughout the 1920s.
