Election postcard for Noel Buxton, Liberal and free trade candidate for Whitby in the 1906 general election (Buxton narrowly lost to the Conservative candidate Gervase Beckett). The main image is of a pair of loaves - a reference to a much publicised speech made by protectionist politician Joseph Chamberlain at Bingley Hall, Birmingham. A portrait of Noel Buxton is included in the top right corner
