Lightly browned slightly creased one or two tiny nicks to edges but generally fairly bright. The printer Alexander Dunbar doesn't appear in the SBTI but is possibly the son of the Alexander Dunbar fl. 1763 mentioned as a 'running stationer' ie. street hawker of books and pamphlets in the SBTI. The broadside is a satire on the Conservative candidates James Andrew Broun-Ramsay and John Learmonth who were comfortably defeated in the Edinburgh election of 1835 by the Whigs John Campbell and James Abercromby. Abercromby later became speaker of the House of Commons and then a lord and his seat was then won by Thomas Babington Macauley. NLS only in JISC. First Edition. Unbound. Good. Elephant Folio.
