A few minor stains and faint general foxing but a clean sound example. Scarce little pamphlet with detailed county-by-county data from the previous three presidential elections in anticipation of what would be one of the most consequential elections in American history the 1860 context between Stephen Douglas and Abraham Lincoln. The pamphlet's purpose is two-fold however as it advertises sewing machines from the Grover and Baker company including numerous testimonials printed among the election data and also several engraved images of various models. Primarily an advertisement for the company produced at their expense but designed to hook in the politics junkie amid the fervor of the 1860 election. Perhaps a dozen copies located in OCLC and some of these may be digital holdings. Not separately catalogued by AAS. Grover & Baker Sewing Machine Co unknown
