First Edition. 4to. Unbound. Pamphlet. Good. Two items, n.p. but probably Cardiff, n.d. but probably 1975 – 1. A double sided ‘wanted’ poster and 2. A six page document on A Question of Freedom.

Lightly browned, with small nicks and tears, lightly creased, the document held together with a paper clip, with associated creasing.

Cymru Goch, a self described ‘Welsh Revolutionary Socialist Organisation’, were protesting against the awarding of the freedom of Cardiff to George Thomas and James Callaghan (both Cardiff M.P.’s), at a ceremony which would also be attended by Harold Wilson and Henry Kissinger. The reverse of the ‘wanted’ poster proclaims that the four were ‘wanted alive or dead’. The two men were awarded the freedom of Cardiff in 1975
