Tony Weller a caricature in Charles Dickens's first novel, “The Pickwick Papers” (1836). He is wearing a black waistcoat and coachman's hat, a red scarf, and a lime green vest.
The irresponsible and care-free Tony Weller is Sam Weller's father. A loquacious coachman, the character never became as popular as his famous son but readers have always enjoyed his quaint humour and his even quainter philosophy.
