Harvard Lampoon

On the way back to the car we passed the Harvard Lampoon building, built in 1909.

 

The Harvard Lampoon was founded in 1876, modelling itself on the British publication, "Punch". Since Punch died a sad death in 2002, it is the longest running satirical magazine in the world; hopefully it is a lot funnier than Punch. Most notably, it has been the springboard for many many highly successful comedy writers. That's a copper ibis on the roof.
