The Bubblers Medley, or a Sketch of the Times Being Europe's Memorial for the Year 1720 (BM 1867,0309.729), Trompe l'oeil composition on the theme of financial 'bubbles', representing an  overlapping collection of satirical prints, a playing card of the knave of spades, a receipt for £1,000 payment for £100 worth of South Sea Stock, and a letter addressed to "[Carin]gton Bowles Print Seller next to the Chapter house St. Pauls Church Yard Londo[n]" lying on a print with a scene of ships at sea and another, at the bottom, of a coastal scene in which only a man's legs can be scene, at lower left, and part of a building on the right. The satirical prints are as follows, from top left: a man laughing at a donkey which eats thistles rather than grass with verses below; a speculator looking through prison bars on which hangs a begging pot, with verses below;  "The Stock-Jobbing Ladies" in which women are eagerly purchasing stock from brokers, one of whom is a Jew with a beard; two "scoundrels", a man and a woman ride past two men walking, illustrating the saying "That Beggers did on Horse-back ride/Whilst Princes walk'd on foot"; "A South Sea Ballad" with a crowd of men in Change Alley, some declaring that they have lost all, others that they have made fortunes, with verses beneath; "Bubble Card" showing a tiny island on which grows a large tree up which men and women climb, some falling from the branches into the sea in which more cautious investors ("Long-heads") remain within their depth; an anamorphosis of a man on horseback numbered "23". 1720
