A flier stating Seán O’Casey’s support for Michael O’Riordan at the general election. O’Casey refers to O’Riordan’s ‘decent and daring qualifications’ and to his record as a fighter for Republican Spain. He writes ‘I hope Michael will win. With all good wishes to the Mother and Child Scheme … and to all the Old Guard of “Jim Larkin’s Union”’.
