hopefully it's of interest to historians looking at e20th British political culture, as well as historians of museums and collecting. For the latter, I ask what do we learn when we turn our attention to collectors who were snubbed by galleries?

Also a big thanks to the journal (Urban History) , who were so efficient and helpful! Would really recommend any ECR to submit to them.

chuffed that my new article in Urban History is out now! I use a 'local crank' to examine how citizenship was understood & exercised by ordinary people in the 1920s, and how far 'active' citizenship could be used to challenge civic elites
