Product Description
Product Description
This work brings together 200 examples from the rich tradition of posters produced by the British trade union movement since its beginnings in the early 19th century. The posters tell of strikes, picket lines, demonstrations, recruitment drives and social events held by workers. Among the illustrations are posters from many historic disputes including the infamous 1841 strike held during the building of the Houses of Parliament, the 1889 dock strike that gave birth to general unionism in Britain, the anti-Hitler campaigns of the early 1930s, the miners' strikes of 1972 and 1984 and most recently the 1997 Magnet lockout.
