The Sheffield Star Lads strike of 1932

I've come across an interesting single sided pamphlet on heavy pink paper from the Sheffield Star Lads strike of 1932, in some family papers.

 

Part typed, part hand written with some cartoons obviously drawn by the Star Lads and run off on a Gastetner machine.

 

It's a curious mix of political and class rhetoric, complaints about how they can't earn a living, how the Christmas box has been taken away, how the newsagents are supporting them by 'sending back 227 cars of Stars'... you get the picture.

 

 

I'll try to scan it later, but in the meantime has anyone come across this before?
