DescriptionBlime, that's copped 'im' by Bert Thomas. This cartoon shows a naval gunner firing his weapon while a friend looks on. The caption reads: 'GUNNER: "BLIME, THAT'S COPPED 'IM. I 'OPE THEY'LL GO TO 'ELL!" / PAL: "DON'T SAY THAT, CHARLIE. YER DON'T WANT TER MEET 'EM AGAIN, SURELY?"' Herbert Samuel (Bert) Thomas (1883 - 1966) was one of the most celebrated British cartoonists of World War I. This was thanks largely to the huge popularity of his cartoon ' 'Arf a mo' Kaiser', which was used to raise funds for tobacco for front line soldiers. The cartoons of Bert Thomas featured in many magazines, including 'Punch', and in later life he had several books of cartoons published.
