Here's George du Maurier's illustration of Darwinism from Punch, 1878. "Without use, an organ dwindles; with use it increases. For instance, the organ of a grinder who, in the struggle for existence, relies entirely on his instrument, is invariably larger than that of the grinder who, in addition uses a monkey. Most of our readers must have noticed this."

There aren't very many imaginary organ-griders in the literature. The caption here reads, "Do you not perceive an Italian organ-grinder over there?" ( English Illustrated, 1900). In 1886, "Tom went to the window, called out to an imaginary organ grinder, pitched a copper, and ordered him to be off with his hideous music" ( John Robertson, One of the People). In 2007, one Harrison Forbes blogged about traveling with an imaginary organ grinder's monkey named Ivan.
