The Right Hon. Benjamin Samuel Phillips, the new Lord Mayor of London, 1865. Creator: Unknown.

The Right Hon. Benjamin Samuel Phillips, the new Lord Mayor of London, 1865. Engraving from a photograph by Messrs. Mayall. 'Mr. Phillips...has been a member of the Common Council nearly twenty years, his first appearance there dating as far back as the year 1847, when he was returned as representative of the ward of Farringdon Within. He was at that time thirty-six years of age, and one of the firm of Faudel, Phillips, and Sons, Newgate-street, importers and manufacturers of embroidery and fancy wools, of which firm he is now the head. In his commercial dealings Mr. Phillips had proved himself to be endowed with great common-sense, tact, and judgment, while his business habits and unblemished reputation for integrity, as well as the interest he took in public affairs, recommended him to the confidence of his neighbours as a candidate for their representation in the City councils...Being a member of the Jewish persuasion, and the first Jew admitted into the municipality of London, he will be the second Lord Mayor of that faith, the first being Alderman Salomons. He has more than once shown his practical sympathy with the wants of his brethren, as well as those of every other denomination. He is a member of the Spectacle Makers' Company'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865.
