I think this is a fantastic idea. As a committee member for The Wolverhampton Society, we would be fully behind this as The Wolverhampton Chronicle was taken over by the Express & Star and the collection on the BNA only goes up to 1868. It is a real shame that a city which saw major developments like breaking the land speed record and having the first set of traffic lights has no local publication to source for this period.
