Description

Twenty-five rulers are identified by number and a corresponding key below the title. Van Buren provides the music. King William IV applauds while King Louis Philippe lands on his derriere. It is titled: "Grand Virginia Reel and Scamperdown at the White House Washington. All the World Completely Discumgalligumfricated." Mounting hinges, 1.5" repaired tear on right edge, minor roughness at bottom.
