In either blank.



Question 458: Pound Wise, Penny Foolish.

There was this British caricaturist called John Leech.
A particular sketch of his, ___X___, was commissioned by a famous author, __Y__, in order to write his novel, __Z__, based on this sketch(__X__).

This word is typically a used to describe someone who's miserly in his ways.

Id X, Y, Z and W.
