Description
From the sellerA campaign newspaper published from 1840-41 to support the Whig Party. The vignette shows Wm. Henry Harrison greeting a wounded solider. Measures 15.5" x 21". This newspaper unfortunately spent its last 176 years creased & folded, hence the damage in the center where the folds came together. Still an attractive artifact! SHrink wrapped on foam core (no adhesives used). This issue shows the results of the 1840 election between Harrison & Van Buren. Harrison died a mere 30 days after his inauguration and his vice president, John Tyler, became president.
