Description
Horatio Seymour: Two-Sided Greenback Handbill. 8" x 9 1/2" handout titled "Greenbacks for Bonds". The top features a pseudo-$1 bill with portrait of the 1868 Democratic candidate for President. The balance of the sheet lists various arguments in support of repaying war bonds in greenbacks, rather than gold. The back side, titled "The Contract", reprints the 1862 "Law authorizing the first issue of Greenbacks and 5.20 Bonds". Partial separation at central horizontal fold, minor aging. Essentially intact and hard to find so, as the portion depicting the greenback is typically found cut off.Auction Info
