The Bonzolines have a couple by George Studdy
The Bonzolines get a little squiffy on whisky, and spill some of the decanters contents. George Ernest Studdy (1878-1948), was the creator of Bonzo, a small dog with saucer-like eyes and indiscriminate breeding who first appeared in the Sketch in 1922. The Bonzo craze swept the world resulting in postcards, annuals, toys and other merchandise. Credit should read: Estate of George Studdy/Gresham Marketing Ltd./ILN/Mary Evans Date: 13 June 1923

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and humorous illustration by George Ernest Studdy, titled 'The Bonzolines Have a Couple,' we see the mischievous Bonzo and his offspring, the Bonzolines, getting a little carried away during a lively gathering. The Bonzolines, with their saucer-like eyes and indiscriminate breeding, have become notorious for their love of whisky and their inebriated antics. In this scene, one Bonzoline has spilled the contents of a decanter, causing a puddle of whisky to form on the table. Another Bonzoline, perhaps the culprit, is seen reaching for a soda siphon to mix in some bubbles, while a groggy Bonzo sleeps soundly in the background, oblivious to the chaos. The influence of alcohol is evident on the Bonzolines, as they display glum expressions and disapproving looks towards one another. This illustration, published in The Sketch on June 13, 1923, captures the playful spirit of the Bonzo craze that swept the world during the 1920s. The Bonzo phenomenon resulted in an abundance of merchandise, including postcards, annuals, toys, and other collectibles.
