The Satirical Broadside is a Proclamation saying it was issued from Bensham Asylum on behalf of George Elliot Emperor of the World. The wording of this Broadside is shown below" 'George Elliot Emperor of the World, The True and Lawful God, George the 5, King of Great Britain, Son of George the Fourth, Imperial Proclamation, The World is God's Estate, The Imperial £100,000 Note, It Implies the Prohibition of the Monstrous, Usurpation of the World Bensham Asylum Near Gateshead, County of Durham, 1853.' Very fine condition, but a camara flash shows up on some of the pictures, but is not on the actual item. This piece is over 163 years old and is in a nice frame from the 1800's. Some toning, but overall very fine condition.
