SKU
EP3052
Very attractive broadside featuring "The Presidents of Our Great Republic" with portraits of each President prior to Franklin Pierce surrounding a larger portrait of President Franklin Pierce and the notation "Fraknlin Pierce from March 1855" beneath the portrait. The only other one of these scarce items that we have ever seen, is included in the Cornell University digital collection, and is identified by the donor as writing paper due to its large blank area at the bottom. In color, which is unusual for the day. Original. It has also been referenced that, given the reference to the March 1853 date, which was the month in which Pierce was inaugurated, it may have been produced to celebrate the inauguration.

Sold by Charles Magnus, 12 Frankfort Street New York, as inscribed at the bottom left.
