Description
Broadsheet illustrated with relief metal engraving by José Guadalupe Posada showing group of striking bakers Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) Text "Julio de 1911" Caption title Text is a corrido, or popular verse, concerning a strike by the bakers of Mexico City in July 1911 "Después de la de los motoristas, la huelga de los panaderos es la más importante. A las once y media del dia 19 de Julio de este año, los panaderos se reunieron en número de cinco mil y recorrieron la [sic] calles en órden , protestando del poco sueldo que disfrutan y de la mala manera y casi despotismo con que los tratan sus patrones. La huelga ha dejado sin pan á los habitantes de la Ciudad y las tortilleras le han subido el precio á su mercancía, por lo que no hay que comer. Si no se arregla pronto esta dificultad, tendremos que comer en seco ó ponerse á hacerlo ..." Sheet printed on both sides México :, Antonio Vanegas Arroyo
