Scan from a Victorian paper I own

Dec 04, 2009 16:37




I have a humble collection of Victorian newspapers. I haven't been able to add any papers to my collection for some time. I adore Victorian newspapers, because they contained no photos, great enough was made in illustration. Such love and care went into every newspaper. They didn't all continue the trashy gossip of the modern tabloid, everything was beautifully worded, and there was some surprisingly forward looking thinkers who contributed to the columns. I have pieces on women's rights, human rights for all races, and help needed for the poor.

Edit: I Hope I haven't posted this before, I have this feeling I have, memory not been so sharp of late.

victorian, old, vintage
