Printed Ephemera — C. 1827
Trade card
Engraved trade card advertising the boat building firm of Frederick Charles Rawlinson and Anthony Lyon, located at the foot of Westminster Bridge on the Surrey side of the River Thames, now known as Lambeth. The card notes that the firm builds and hires out all sorts of 'pleasure boats for rowing and sailing' and includes a view of the River Thames with several small rowing and sailing vessels and, to the left Westminster Bridge. The card refers to the firm as being boat builder to the 'late Duke of York' and, therefore probably dates from around 1827 when the Duke, the second son of George III died.
