Description: | This is a political leaflet protesting about the increase in the price of beer. Beer was the staple drink of the working classes because it was easily available, had a limited amount of nutritious content and was cheap. Throughout the 19th century the average price of a pint of beer was just 2 or 3 pence. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
