About this Item

5 issues. Large 8vo. Original pictorial wrappers. An attractive group of these wonderful University of Manchester Annual "rag mags", issues 5, 7, 8, 9 & 10 respectively. Each features satirical and comedic elements, including humorous articles, advertisements and illustrations, with excellent cover artwork by illustrators including the well-known illustrator and painted, Karl Hagedorn (1889 1969). A fascinating insight into the Mancunian culture of the period, with articles on subjects as diverse as local public transport, the weather, the 'Indian Question', Chinese myths, detective fiction, the Nazis & Mussolini, and an Irish Free State. Minor spotting and rubbing, but really overall a very good collection.
