About this Item

27 pages. Lundie surveys the origins of savings banks and the philanthropic aims behind them. The article discusses the schemes proposed by Rose, Duncan, and others, emphasising their belief in thrift, moral improvement, and financial security for the labouring classes. Some foxing. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 18 x 26 cms.
