The Old Labourers Last Job, picture and poem
An old man sits breaking stones while a workhouse looms behind. In the accompanying verse he bemoans his poverty, particularly at the hands of the Tories who have taxed our clothes and bread, and everything we had. He prays to be taken from Tory Egypt into the Promised Land. This 1909 card apparently reproduces an earlier poster of unknown date
