Retail Chemist 1930s to 1960s
Can find nothing relating to this magazine on the internet. This is available to order from the British Library but not everyone is able to visit. There is too little on this site relating to the retail trade, especially chemists.

Published 1888-91 for the Women's Liberal Association; edited by Eliza Orme, LlB. Reports of local WLA meetings throughout Britain, with lots of names and connections. Suffrage, Liberal party issues, especially Irish land law and Home Rule. The editor, first woman in England with a law degree, had a distinguished public career and WGWN is a vital source for recovering her story.
