Description: Tiny the Wonder, created circa 1850 by Jemmy Shaw. 'Rat-Catching at the Blue Anchor Tavern, Bunhill Row, Finsbury', c1850. A black and tan terrier called "Tiny the Wonder" is attempting to kill two hundred barn rats in under an hour, a feat which he accomplished on two separate occasions, on 28th March 1848 and 27th March 1849. Count d'Orsay is among the audience, and the man in the centre holding a watch is the time-keeper name Jemmy Shaw. Tiny was owned by Shaw, the proprietor of the Blue Anchor Inn, who could store up to 2,000 farm rats in his establishment. The original painting is in the Museum of London.
