Print circulations and pedling
During the 20 years which followed the great agricultural crisis of the mid-nineteenth century, definitive emigration supplanted seasonal emigration. However, traditionnal peddling migrations managed to hold its own and even to expand around 1875. The study of the pedling of prints will be used as an example for entering into the changes of the profiles of the migrant merchants. Censuses, records for military conscription and pedling permits allows to see the diversity of the last pedlars before the major breakdown caused by the 1st World War. Regional or national networks of booksellers dealing in widely demanded books and in illicit ones and the emergence of peldars attached to political parties and churches are the main new characters.
