Description

[Abraham Lincoln]: Draft Riots Broadside. "Don't Unchain the Tiger!", 12" x 18", published by the New York Workingmen's Democratic Republican Association, New York City, ca. 1863. Any prolonged conflict inspires a certain degree of social unrest and the Civil War was no exception. New York City, with its traditions of dirty politics, stampeding mobs and gang violence, was indeed poised to "unchain the tiger" of self-destruction. This broadside is an impassioned appeal to maintain order and obey the law.

Condition: Light edge roughness, split at center fold at the bottom, hinged at the top.
