Original 19th Century Reward Poster - Destruction of a Surrey Farm Gate

19th century
For Sale by Culvertons
Description

This is one of a group of rare & original mid-19th Century 'wanted' posters collected by a local gentleman. During his lifetime he accumulated a vast collection of social history linked to Dorking - Surrey & Horsham - West Sussex.

Five Pounds Reward in 1845 is approximately £600 in today's £££

When considering the original function and age of the poster it is in remarkably good condition. We have had the poster professionally framed and mounted - an off-white mount with a solid light oak frame and backed with acid-free board. A wire for hanging this framed poster has been fixed to the reverse.

Dealers Notes

Whenever possible Culvertons undertake the carriage of items within London and the home counties. Professional, competitive and trusted couriers and shipping companies are engaged for deliveries for the remainder of our customers. Smaller items, when instructed, will be carefully parcelled and securely sent by the carrier.

We strive to accurately describe and illustrate our stock on the 'Selling Antiques' website. However, we understand that it is not always possible to judge from photographs how an item will look in the home or garden. For this reason, if notified within seven days from the date of delivery we offer a full refund (less any agreed carriage costs) once the item has been returned in the same condition as it left our premises.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Broadsides were single-sheet notices printed on one side, commonly posted in public spaces during the 18th and 19th centuries to announce official proclamations, community news, or law enforcement rewards.

These documents were typically printed on rag paper or early wood-pulp paper using letterpress techniques with black oil-based ink and metal or wooden type.

Authentic pieces display characteristic letterpress impress indentations, period-appropriate typography, natural paper age or foxing, and specific historical details such as printer signatures and regional dates.

Framing broadsides in simple timber or metal frames creates a focal point when placed in hallway gallery walls, home offices, or reading alcoves alongside historic prints.

Mount the paper using acid-free, archival-quality materials behind UV-filtering glass, ensuring placement away from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
