189236912New York 1892. Folio broadside 10" x 13" printed in three columns beneath caption title. Minor wear at blank upper edge Very Good plus.<br /> <br /> "The Republican party of 1860 was the exponent of the grandest ideas and the most ennobling sentiments but to what abysmal depths has it fallen in these times. It now stands for nothing more than a corrupting combination between plutocrats and politicians to plunder the people." <br /> Three former Republicans express their dismay at their Party's moral collapse in the Gilded Age and their indignation at Republican mistreatment of Union Civil War veterans. They announce their plans to vote for Grover Cleveland the Democratic candidate in the upcoming presidential election. They are confident "that the interests of the old soldiers are safe with the Democratic party and Grover Cleveland who has always been sincere who has always kept his promises." <br /> The three are William Green District Attorney of Fulton County NY; Harrison Clark "once Dep't Comd'r of N.Y. G.A.R. and George B. Loud Past Jun. Vice Dep't Comd'r of Florida G.A.R." They express their disappointment and anger in these printed letters dated in early October 1892 to Theodore F. Reed Secretary of the National Veterans' Tariff Reform League.<br /> Not located on OCLC as of September 2024 or the online sites of AAS NYPL or NYHS. unknown
1828WRCAM56438N.p. 1828. Broadside 20 3/4 x 14 inches. Old folds small closed tears along most folds some separation at center fold. Residue and mild staining from previous tape repairs one older tape repair still in place. Minor edge wear and a few small chips even tanning. About very good. One version of the infamous "Coffin Broadsides" attacking Andrew Jackson in the presidential campaign of 1828. There was considerable mud-slinging between the Jackson and Adams camps during that campaign which eventually saw the defeat of incumbent John Quincy Adams and the election of Andrew Jackson. Across the top of the present broadside are six woodcut coffins bearing the names of six militiamen shot for mutiny on Jackson's orders during the War of 1812; an account of their wrongful execution follows. Below that there are more accounts of Jackson's evil and murderous deeds including twelve regular soldiers shot for desertion despite their "not guilty" pleas complete with twelve more coffin woodcuts; Jackson assaulting another man Samuel Jackson in the streets of Nashville and running him through with a sword while Samuel bent over to pick up a rock for defense with a woodcut of a demonic Jackson committing the murderous act; the tale of another soldier unfairly executed another woodcut coffin; and a brief account of some Indian prisoners executed on Jackson's orders four more coffins. The bottom portion includes a testimonial by Thomas Hart Benton who himself had fought a duel with Jackson. <br> <br> The "Coffin Handbill" was printed and reprinted in several sizes and formats. Sabin quotes John Spencer Bassett in his LIFE OF ANDREW JACKSON who notes that the "execution of mutinous militiamen in the campaigns of 1813 and 1814 was recalled to show Jackson's ferocious temper; and when a Philadelphia editor published a hand-bill showing a coffin with the victims standing by its side the idea was caught up eagerly and repeated in all parts of the country."
