Description
Great 1860 Lincoln Political Cartoon Print by Currier Lincoln is shown dancing and "riding the rail" labelled "Republican Platform," while The New York Tribune's influential editor Horace Greeley plays the music. Jefferson Davis is dressed as a nanny holding a black child: "It's no use trying to keep me and the 'Irrepressible' infant in the background..." Figures on the right satirize the other two major New York newspapers, the Times and The Courier and Enquirer. Minor age spotting (easily professionally cleaned if one felt the need ) otherwise exceptional condition. Very elegantly custom-framed. 16. 5" x 11.25", 21" x 16" as framed.Auction Info
