A Basket of Poses - George S. Chappell and Rockwell Kent

A Basket of Poses is a series of short satirical poems by noted journalist and parodist George Shepard Chappell (1877-1946). Each poem is here accompanied by an equally humorous black ink illustration by Rockwell Kent (1882-1971), who has chosen to have his work on this book attributed to the fictional “Hogarth, Jr.” It is a fun, sweet, and irreverent collection.
