Lettering

An awkward reminder. The poor rich gentleman who wants tariff reform and food taxes clearly does not like the look of the handwriting on the wall. Copyright. FCG The workman points to a poster on the wall saying: "'Property cannot pay its debt to labour by taxing its means of subsistence' Mr Chamberlain, Birmingham, January 5th, 1885." The rich man carries a sandwich board inscribed "We want tariff reform" Bears reference code : L.P.D. No. 26
