Unique Hand-Drawn Douglas & Johnson Presidential Election Campaign Patriotic With "LIBERTY & UNION"
1860 United States Presidential Election Campaign, Douglas & Johnson, Hand-Drawn Pencil Patriotic Display with American Flags, Banners and Slogan "LIBERTY & UNION" and "Hail to the Chief", Very Fine.
The American presidential election held on Nov. 6, 1860, in which the Republican Abraham Lincoln defeated Southern Democrat John C. Breckinridge, Democrat Stephen A. Douglas, and Constitutional Union candidate John Bell, and ultimately resulting in the Civil War. This Unique Hand-Drawn Pencil Patriotic Display measures about 4" x 6.25" on period wove paper. Signed in period brown ink on reverse with artists name, "J. Emastus" and place, "Brown University" below. The artwork is very well accomplished and appears totally contemporary to the 1860 election. Reverse side blank other than the signature. A small water stain in the bottom right margin edge of slight notice. A fabulous Patriotic Campaign Piece for display and absolutely unique.
United States presidential election of 1860, American presidential election held on Nov. 6, 1860, in which Republican Abraham Lincoln defeated Southern Democrat John C. Breckinridge, Democrat Stephen A. Douglas, and Constitutional Union candidate John Bell.
The electoral split between Northern and Southern Democrats was emblematic of the severe sectional split, particularly over slavery, and in the months following Lincoln's election (and before his inauguration in March 1861), seven Southern states, led by South Carolina on Dec. 20, 1860, seceded, setting the stage for the American Civil War (1861-65).
