been performed at Piccini's early 19th century Punch & Judy
show. Downloading this page with its 362k sound file (.aif) can
take 1-3 minutes depending on your connection. You will be able
to view the related images and text while you wait for the sound

The
Punch Page Rests
The Punch Page no longer accepts
contributions nor will there be periodic updates. The site
will remain on-line as a resource.
The
Punch Page was created in 1996 in an effort to collect
and present as much information as possible about Old
Red Nose and to satisfy the editor's greed for images
of Punch.
The
editor has become too busy with other web projects (the
ones that pay the bills) to properly maintain The Punch
Page. Also several marvelous new sites devoted to Punch
& Judy have been established in the mother country
and elsewhere freeing The Punch Page of the responsibility
to continue to collect and publish Punch & Judy information.
The Punch Page therefore reluctantly leaves the field.
Many
thanks to all the contributors from around the world who
provided so much wonderful content, information and support
during the past several years. Special thanks from a devoted
fan to all past and present Punch Professors for keeping
the spirit of Punch alive!
