Description: A play on a short piece taken from a Christchurch newspaper, which reads: 'Christchurch, no one is going to nobble six Australian competitors in this month's national frog jumping contest - the organisers have arranged for an armed security guard.' The cartoon exaggerates this idea to the point where, in the last frame, a horse truck pulls up to the jumping contest, filled with seven armed security guards. The policeman asks the truck driver "Horse?", to which the driver replies, "No, just got a frog in my float" Inscriptions: Recto - bottom right - Nevile Lodge 71 Quantity: 1 original cartoon(s).
