Thread Name: Origins: Songs from the Chartist movement
Subject: RE: Origins: Songs from the Chartist movement
There are some in the Bodleian Broadside Collection. A search for chartism against Index 3: Subjectss produces:

Gutta percha Mouse
The Chartists are coming
Lines, by a Chartist
The Chartist's flare-up on Witsun-Monday
Frost, Williams, and Jones's farewell to Engl[and]
The kingdoms complaint or Birds with the golden eggs
The Chartist song
The cotton spinners' farewell
Conversations on the present times
Peggy Potts' speech to the poor folks, at Sunderland election


(Herga Kitty and I used to sing a version of Frost, Jones and Williams that I adapted from the version in Palmer's Ballad History of England).
