NORTHAMPTONSHIRE EVENING TELEGRAPH 24/01/1948

The note underneath the cartoon explains:

"To the Corby gentleman who did not like Steelman's portrait in last week's cartoon and who relegated our cartoonist and ourselves to the lowest possible rank, this cartoon is humbly dedicated. To our Scottish friend we say with Burns: "Oh would the power the giftie gie us, to see ourselves as others see us". We'd put it all in Scottish only it hurts our back teeth - R.I.P."

This cartoon has been reproduced in the Unseen Bellamy Basement Gallery exhibition

"AMENDE HONORABLE - Obsolete English Law. A penalty imposed upon a person by way of disgrace or infamy, as a punishment for any offence, or for the purpose of making reparation for any injury done to another, as the walking into church in a white sheet, with a rope about the neck, and a torch in the hand, and begging the pardon of God, or the king, or any private individual, for some delinquency."
