Item description from seller

Single-sheet election broadside printed by Smith of Alnwick, dated Kirk Harle, April 3rd, 1826, and signed in print by Charles Loraine. Issued during the fiercely contested Northumberland election of 1826, the broadside defends Bell's supporters against accusations made by Henry Thomas Liddell and reproduces two pieces of correspondence exchanged between Loraine and Liddell in February 1826. An important piece of contemporary political ephemera documenting campaign strategy, electoral controversy and political communication in pre-Reform Britain. No separate institutional record for this specific item has been traced, although related Northumberland election broadsides survive in major institutional collections. Near fine condition with fold creases, light age toning and minor handling wear. Dimensions: 22.5 x 27.4 cm. A scarce and apparently unrecorded Northumberland election broadside from one of the county's most significant nineteenth-century electoral contests.
