Divided into sections - from Love and Marriage through Court, Crime and Punishment, Animals, Accidents and Misfortune, Inventions, Sport, Food and Drink , The Supernatural, and finally Wagers and Feats - and with each article reproduced in full, The Burglar Caught by a Skeleton is also packed with sketches from the sensational Illustrated Police News. Deliciously appalling and dreadfully funny, The Burglar Caught by a Skeleton will have you, one way or the other, in tears.Product Identifiers
