Ajoutée par jacquesraffine, 09 Jui 2023 Antique saleroom posters for the East India Company
advertised a wide selection of new and exciting
houseware items. The ships involved in the trade to
India and beyond were generally away from England for
the best part of two years. In the song "Pepper
Porcelain Callicoes" a sailor's wife tells of how the
realities of the trade affect her own life. |
