Lansdowne Balfour: Please Sir, we're taking care that he's always under control. John Bull: Oh, really! Then I'll thank you to leave him alone - I see I shall have to take away those chains.

A satirical character that was first used in 1712, John Bull is a personification of the British public. Printed and published by The Avenue Press Ltd, London. Horizontal.
