This anonymous London outfit cranked out playful prints by the thousands, cranking out everything from quirky dogs to royal processions. They left no signature—just a tiny “W. H. Ward & Co.” in the corner and a lot of charm. Hunt down the H Beard Collection online and scroll through the 1900 comic parade; one click later you’ll be grinning at a terrier in a top hat.
