Scope and Content

Album of press-cuttings, etc., mainly relating to Gloucestershire, with some illustrative material. Includes words of poems and songs, a pen and wash view of the Thames-Severn canal (with press-cutting, 1787), and a lithograph, 1874, by J. P. Moore. Copies of D. and S. Lysons, Magna Britannia (Beds., Berks., Bucks.) (1806), and Additional Plates (1815) are preserved with the collection. Some volumes have extra illustrations by T. Fisher, and all appear to have been owned and annotated by William Bromet (see his collection BRO).
