So there I was at an
antiques fair in Stockport, looking for potential stock for my
fledgling business when this bit of ephemera caught my eye and I just
had to have it for my own interest. I admit that I collect some odd
things, and I've been in the habit of accumulating political
literature since my days as an activist with the former Libertarian
Party – this may be the oldest example of an election leaflet that
I've ever seen though:
It seems even in the
1880s local politicians were screwing the citizenry into the ground
with excessive taxes!
