- Abstract
-
"A reissue ... of BMSat 6250 (1783), on the coalition of Fox and North, Humphrey's imprint scored through but legible. The application to current politics (if intended) is obscure: Fox, saying "Damn the Tories!!!", triumphs over Shelburne, with the help of North (d. 1792)."--British Museum online catalogue
