Previously attributed to John Doyle (1797-1868), known as HB. It is by one of the imitators of Doyle, using the signature h.b. (in lower case). "Almost at once the Sketches [of John Doyle] were imitated. HB portraits like those of Gillray and Dighton became much-copied stereotypes of politicians. Seymour in particular became an imitator in the earliest lithographs for The looking glass. The imitators adopt some initials as much like HB as possible. In this volume there is an IB or JB clearly intended to pass as HB, though the draughtsman was unequal to the deception. Henry Heath was another imitator, and signs himself HH. 'We may observe', said The times in November 1836, 'that the extensive and merited success of HB has produced a herd of clumsy imitators.'. Later there were also 'Philo HB', BH (Bob Hamerton), hB. And there were the forgers who produced the spurious copies denounced by McLean"—Dorothy George, loc. cit
