Unusual locally-published print of the well-known Cheltenham personality Hannah Forty (1744-1816), who pumped water for the visitors to the spa from 1772 until the first day of 1816. A monument to her exists in Cheltenham Minster St. Mary's. When George III visited Cheltenham he quipped to her: 'Mrs Forty, you and your husband together make eighty'. This bon mot is often quoted to prove the king had a sence of humour, just not a very good one.
