- Between 1902-1903, publisher Charles Elkin Mathews produced a monthly series entitled 'A Broad Sheet', in a single sheet, broadside format. On display is the first issue from January 1902. This sheet features poetry by Irish writers George Moore and W.B. Yeats, whose poem ‘Spinning Song’ was first printed here. The hand coloured illustrations were by Yeats’s younger brother, Jack, and Pamela Colman Smith, who most famously illustrated the Rider-Waite Tarot deck.
