Southampton Strike Bulletin. No 6 (May 10th, 1926)

Southampton, UK: T. E. Lewis, 1926. Single sheet, 8.25x10.5 inches, printed both sides, creased from folding and with two minor spots of soil and two small rust stains but good overall.

The General Strike, led by the Trades Union Congress, was an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to prevent wage reductions and other damages to the livelihoods of coal miners. This bulletin reports positively on the participation of transit workers in the strike and refutes pro-business press accounts of violent incidents.
