Dawson's Humorous Scraps No 9. Cross Readings. Bill Stickers Beware.
Printed by L.M. Lefevre, Newman Street.
London. Published by Tho.s Dawson, 29 Bedford St. Covent Garden. [n.d., c.1840.]
Very fine coloured lithograph. Sheet 380 x 280mm (15 x 11"). Laid on album paper at corners.
A fence covered with overlapping bills, positioned to be read for humourous effect. An example reads ''Her Majesty's most gracious Pardon will be Granted to any Person who will / Abuse or in any way ill use / The New Police''. This example differs from the usual 'Cross Readings' by having an illustrated satire about bills in each corner. The one bottom left combines racism with an advert for another of the the publisher's products, 'Dawson's Ink. An actor reads an advert for the ink, which is described as 'a beautiful rich black which will never fade'; he exclaims 'Never!! I did try it once when I played Othello and have been a confirmed black ever since'.
