About the series

A single, oversized 1850 issue from Wilson and Company, A Day's Sport is a broad, comic romp following three distinctly mismatched gentlemen—a shopkeeper, a legal clerk, and a jovial major—as they bumble through a day of hunting. Published as a standalone novelty, it stands as an early American example of the humorous sporting tale told in sequential pictures, valued today for its glimpse into mid-19th century popular entertainment and the roots of the comic format.
