Presented to the celebrants on the occasion of the cremation of the late King of Siam Rama VI, March 24 1926. King Vajiravudha, (1818 - 1925) whose reigning title was Phra Mongkut Klao Chaoyuhua was known for his passionate love of theater. He was educated in England and his great love of literature and poetry in both Thai and English along with his scholastic abilities was later to manifest itself during his reign. Among his lasting achievements were devising a system of transliterating Thai into English and of translating the entire works of Shakespeare into Thai. His passion for traditional Thai theater and ballet left a mass of published scores which form the basis of the study of these arts, even through the present day. His passion was creating literary works for the Siamese theater, with over one thousand poems and plays of romantic and nationalistic themes.

[Bangkok], November 19, 1918. An extremely rare broadside issued by the Royal Court of King Vajiravudh (Rama VI) of Siam, celebrating the Allied victory in World War I, translated into the English language and published in Bangkok for the benefit of Siam's Western expatriate population. - This extremely rare broadside was printed on the orders of the Royal Court of Siam (Siam would not become Thailand until 1932), in the name of King Vajiravudh (Rama VI), and celebrates the end of World War I, and Siam's role as one of the victorious Allied powers. The broadside was issued in the English language (after a Thai language broadside) for the benefit of the many Westerners resident in Bangkok, some of whom wielded significant influence upon their home government's attitudes towards Siam. In this sense, the broadside was a key part of Vajiravudh's ongoing (and highly successful) nationalist propaganda campaign, which sought to stoke patriotic sentiment at home (to the benefit of this rule), while strengthening Siam's status abroad. was certainly issued separately, some examples were also included as insets within the November 19, 1918 edition of the Bangkok Times, a newspaper, which since its founding in 1887 had been the main public information vehicle for Westerners in Siam. Like all official royal documents, the royal vignette of the Chakri Dynasty tops the broadside. Beneath, the text commences: "On the 22nd of July of the present year I invited the Siamese people to unite in an intercessional prayer involving the Holy Buddhist Trinity and the Virtues of the departed Sovereigns of the Royal Chakri Dynasty to grant aid and vouchsafe victory to the Grand Alliance over our enemies." The King then gives details with respect to the Allies' momentous global military achievements during the war, which are framed as "the triumph of Right over Militarism and of Civilization over Barbarism". In honour of the victory, the King then extends an invitation to the Siamese people to attend a massive patriotic-religious celebbe conveneoyal Plaza on December 2, 1918 (the anniversary of his coronation), where Vajiravudh will be joined by "the Princess of the Royal House, the officials of the Governments, the officers and men of My Army and Navy, and Corps of Wild Tiger Scouts [the King's special armed corps], [and] there offer up a Thanksgiving Prayer to the Holy Emerald Image of our Lord Buddha. (M.R.) Rama R, Given at the Ambara Palace, Bangkok, on the nineteenth day of November, B.E. 2461 (1918.)" Historical Context: King Vajiravudh, the Rise of Thai Nationalism & Siam's Role in World War I - The present broadside marks a key event in the brief, but consequential, reign of King Vajiravudh (Rama VI, 1885 1925, reigned 1910-25) of Siam.

King Maha Mongkut, also known as Rama IV, ruled Siam (now Thailand) from 1851 to 1868, during which time he successfully negotiated with Western powers and modernized his nation. Mongkut ascended the throne upon the death of his half-brother, Jetta (Rama III), after spending 27 years as a Buddhist monk. Educated and multi-lingual, Mongkut negotiated with the United States and European powers to open Siam to international trade.
