Keys Cup Match

Date made: 1955

Artist: Miller, Harold 'Dusty'

Description: Satirical cartoon drawn for Isle of Man Times newspaper, 14 October 1955. Shows a football match, 'city slickers' versus 'country govags'. One of country govags says "Sorry slickers, I know there's a lot of us, but if we gave you one man you might beat us."

This is a reference to attempts to redistribute seats in the Keys - rural areas know they are over represented but refuse to concede a seat to the urban areas.
