- Lot Description
Glazed cotton muslin, 3.5 x 6.5 in., printed campaign flag. Signature W. Wilson stamped on stripes. Ca 1912-1920.
Virginia native Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924), the son of a Presbyterian minister, graduated from Princeton and the University of Virginia Law School, then earned his doctorate degree at Johns Hopkins and began an academic career as a political science professor. He became president of Princeton University in 1902.
Wilson was elected governor of New Jersey in 1910, endorsing a progressive platform, which led to his nomination for president at the Democratic Convention in 1912. He defeated incumbent William Howard Taft and Teddy Roosevelt in a three-way race, capturing only 42 percent of the popular vote, but an overwhelming majority of the electoral college votes. He served two terms and died in February, 1924, three years after leaving office.
Documented in the book, The Stars and Stripes: Fabric of the American Spirit, J. Richard Pierce, LLC (p.59).
Condition
Good overall color. Slight offset printing of canton; minor soiling on bottom red stripe. Stitched to acid-free mat board.
