Rough trade loses article with post office in Albert’s coinage ( 8 ) A bit contrived but hey.

'Rough' is an anag signifier with 'trade' supplying the letters but we don't need the 'a' hence 'loses article'; 'post office' gives 'PO' and 'in' is just 'in' init? Fairish?? I think I just liked the idea of previous answer supplying some of the cluing mechanism.

I've had a roomful of semi-trained chimps working through anagrams of "a right humanist" hoping to find something which chimes with Delaney and Richardson's 1961 classic, so far without success.
