By: Hine, Henry George, 1811-1895; Mason, Walter George, 1820-1866; Beard, Richard, 1801-1885; Webster, Kenneth Athol, 1906-1967

Description: Engraving of a long-song seller shows a man in slightly rumpled suit and top hat, holding on a pole several copies of a long-song sheet entitled "The policemen". Text below indicates that he is calling: "Three yards a penny! Three yards a penny! Beautiful songs! Newest songs! Popular songs! Three yards a penny! Songs, songs, songs!" Faint trace shows imprint of facing page, indicating this page is from a book entitled "Curiosities of street literature", possibly an 1871 publication edited by Charles Hindley (See British Library catalogue). The engraver Walter George Mason emigrated to Australia in 1852, and it is unlikely that the actual engraving was done after that date. Mason worked as an engraver for the Illustrated London news, Punch, the Pictorial times, and the Art journal. However, as above, the engraving may have been re-used for an 1871 edition of "Curiosities of street literature". Inscriptions: Verso - bottom right - [Rubber stamp]: Webster Collection Quantity: 1 b&w art print(s). Physical Description: Engraving, on sheet 279 x 214 mm.
