From Henry Holiday's illustrations to Lewis Carroll's
The Hunting of the Snark (1876)
Illustration (1876) by Henry Holiday (engraved by Joseph Swain) to Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark depicting the Bellman (a cartoonish version with bigger nose), the Baker, the Barrister, the Billard marker (dipicted only in this illustration), the Banker (looks different in some other illustrations), the Bonnet maker (half hidden face; only in this illustration, perhaps an "Assistenzselbstbildnis" of Henry Holiday) and the Broker.
Whatsoever, on board of that snarked vessel you probably can forget about playing billards anyway.
