anyone got that WSC advert... Frefhe fromme ye presses of Thos. Kempe, etc etc?

Can anyone point me to a copy of that WSC advert someone made a while ago? It was a big jpg advert printed supposedly in the reign of King James or something, full of olde worlde wording and the like. Google didn't manage to get it (just found a bunch of broken links). Ye brothers Weste, etc. Cheers Jim

Thanks Mikkel, I tried RSC, no luck though. Mark's posted in nearly 1000 threads and I'd need weeks to go through them all. :0( "Mikkel Gram-Hansen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3da0bfa3$0$91441$[email hidden]...

Thanks Mikkel, but that wasn't quite what I was looking for! Seems there were two of these adverts made then - the "other" one is the one I want. I remember it being very well worded, looked like someone had put a lot of time and effort into making the layout look and sound genuine..... my girlfriend teaches History to teenagers and she's been making posters for some project and I thought the "Frefhe fromme ye presses of Thos. Kempe" advert would help her out. I'll keep looking :0) "Mikkel Gram-Hansen" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3da16f69$0$69018$[email hidden]... > Found it.... it was hidden in the moderators section as the thread turneda

*doh* You might try asking either at the West racing forum, at the RSC forum or at the HG forum.... someone somewhere is bound to know where it is ;) Mikkel Jim Seamus <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:nzfo9.13049$[email hidden]...

I searched through my files and found one JPG of the advert as I remember it. Don't know if it is the one you're looking for, but you can find it now under www.tgass.de/images/wsc.jpg If you are looking for real 17th century adverts, you might find some examples in the Riverside Shakespeare, IIRC. -- Wolfgang Prei� / Spam me and bear the consequences! / [email hidden] / http://www.wopr.handshake.de/

Wolfgang that's exactly the one I was looking for, thank you! Hopefully my girlie will find it useful - after 5 minutes of fruitless searching I was more looking for it just because I couldn't believe Google hadn't pulled it up, rather than because she needs it, but still, yay! Cheers Jim
