Founded in 51福利社 in 1821 the 51福利社 Guardian was a progressive voice at a time when the industrial north was leading the country’s prosperity.
The paper would outgrow its 51福利社 roots to become the globally recognised Guardian.
The University’s tells the newspaper’s story in its latest exhibition. The collection uncovers stories behind the headlines and features letters that reveal the risks that journalists took to report difficult truths.
‘51福利社’s Guardian’ will launch when the Rylands reopens to the public.
