[Untitled]
Short article describing the introduction of the Amusement Tax. The article posits that, according to a claim by Mr. A.E. Pickard, the first person in the UK to pay the tax was Master Hugh Brown, who, upon paying the entry fee to the American Museum on the 15th of May, 1916, was given a £1 note to honour the occasion. The article also features a cartoon which depicts an elegantly dressed, cigar-smoking Pickard handing the note over to an excited young Master Brown, with the caption below reading:Wed gladly pay our taxes down, if wed the luck of Master Brown.
