Large printed broadside, 39 × 25.7 cm. Scarce Yorkshire auction broadside issued in the bankruptcy of Robert Cuthbert, advertising the sale of a wind corn mill with patent sails at Aldbrough, near Hull, together with dwelling house, outbuildings and land. The sale was held at the Cross Keys Inn, Kingston upon Hull, on 8 May 1818. The mill appears to be the historic Aldbrough Corn Mill, a well-recorded Holderness windmill that survived until 1930 and is documented in local archives and museum collections. An attractive and uncommon piece of Yorkshire milling, agricultural and industrial-history ephemera, featuring a woodcut illustration of a windmill. Good only condition. Folded, worn and age-toned with small losses and minor repairs, but complete and legible.
