May 05, 1926
DAILY MIRROR, London, England, May 5, 1926 This is a small, somewhat crudely-produced issue of this famous tabloid printed during the historic General Strike in the United Kingdom.
A General Strike was called by the Trades Union Congress in support of the coal miners' stand against enforced pay cuts. It lasted only nine days in May but brought large parts of Britain to a standstill, including London where there were armored cars on Oxford Street.
This is a broadside edition (printed on one side only; reverse is blank), and measures just 8 by 13 inches, typewriter-set, nice condition.
