Poster: the banner of the Reading Branch of the ILP Poster: the banner of the Reading Branch of the ILP allDescriptionThe banner of the Reading Branch of the Independent Labour Party (to be updated) Any information about this banner would be appreciated. We are keen to know: - Who designed it and who made it. - Is the font used for the text seen elsewhere? - Was the design influenced by the Arts and Craft movement / William Morris? The ILP was one of the groups that founded the labour Party. Information about the current ILP can be found here. http://www.independentlabour.org.uk/main/ another link on the background to the ILP can be found here. http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/Pilp.htm For information about ILP on the Clyde look here. http://sites.scran.ac.uk/redclyde/redclyde/docs/rcgroilp.htm For a critical history try here. http://www.workersliberty.org/node/5391 Produced for the Working Class Movement Library, Salford, by Worcester Labour History Studies Group, which has now closed.
