1831177610London: J. Catnach printer 1831. Pomp and ceremony at the new London Bridge First edition of this rare broadside celebrating the opening of the new London Bridge and the Royal flotilla that passed underneath. The illustration captures the scene: there are waving crowds and flags flying a hot-air balloon is in the air and there are many barges including at the centre the barge with the royal couple.
