Title
Copy of verses on the execution of Daniel Good
Description
The Seven Dials, where this broadside was produced, was one of the worst slums in London at the time. In the 17th century, it became the center of the ballad trade. A group of London’s most prolific balladeers called themselves the “Seven Bards of the Seven Dials.” Criminal confessions were frequently printed in broadsides, either collected from the condemned themselves or fabricated completely by the balladeer. They often took a moralistic tone that, nonetheless, made sure to share all the gory details.
