New London Cries or All the Talents Making Themselves Useful!,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating and humorous print published in May 1807, showcases an array of colorful characters hawking their wares in the bustling streets of London. The creator of this intriguing image remains unknown, but it was intended as a frontispiece to a satirical poem of the same name, poking fun at the economic climate of the time. The scene is filled with a motley crew of vendors, each offering their unique and often peculiar goods for sale. Among them, a man peddles "Old Cloaths to sell!," promising a pair of "Broad Bottom Breeches" that are almost as good as new. Another character hawks "Hot Gray peas," "Blunder-head Dumplins," and "dispensations from the Pope," while yet another offers "petty calculations" for young entrepreneurs. A man with a drum beckons potential recruits to join the "Broad Bottom'd Regiment," while a vendor hawks "Several Old Wigs and briefs" from the retiring "Lord Ego." Other goods for sale include "Irish Bulls," "Whitbread's real Brown Stout," "Doctor's stuff," and even an "Old Harlequins Jacket." This vibrant and lively print offers a glimpse into the economic landscape of London during the early 19th century, showcasing the ingenuity and resourcefulness of its inhabitants. Despite the challenging times, the people of London continue to make the best of their situation, turning their talents and resources into opportunities for commerce and survival.
