Historical Note: Broadside ballads were part of the rich mix of popular street literature produced in England from the 16th through 19th centuries. These ballads, printed cheaply on thin sheets of paper, were sold on the streets of England by peddlers and hawkers for a penny or half-penny, in most cases. The ballads centered on popular subject matter such as love, sex, marriage, politics, religion, fantastic tales, humorous anecdotes, social reform, and crime. Most included an illustration of some kind, though in many cases the image had little or nothing to do with the subject of the text. In London, many broadside ballads were printed by publishers located in the Seven Dials district including the well-known print shops of John Marshall, John Pitts, and James Catnach.

Scope and Content: This collection contains approximately 200 English street ballads, printed on portions of broadside sheets, the bulk of which date from around 1850-1870. Some sheets contain two ballads printed side by side or at top and bottom. The author and printer information are included when available, however most of these ballads do not include authors' names. Please note that a handful of the ballads listed below are related to crime.

Statement of Arrangement: Materials are arranged in alphabetical order by title.

Related Material: Other examples of criminal broadsides are found in the Borowitz Crime sub-collections British Criminal Broadsides collection and Criminal Broadsides of America collection.

    Historical Note: Both street ballads on this broadside are example of blackface minstrelsy. “Blackface minstrelsy is a popular entertainment form, originating in the United States in the mid-19th century and remaining in American life through the 20th century. The form is based around stereotypical and racist portrayals of African Americans, including mocking dialect, parodic lyrics, and the application of Black face paint; all designed to portray African Americans as othered subjects of humor and disrespect. Blackface was a dominant form for theatrical and musical performances for decades, both on stage and in private homes. The Street Ballads of Victorian England collection includes Blackface minstrelsy materials for the benefit of scholars seeking to better understand the role racial performance has had in shaping Western culture.” The text of this note was created by Dorothy Judith Berry who suggests that archival collections containing minstrelsy content share a common historic note.
