1835 · New York
by [Jackson, Andrew]
New York: Isaac F. Bragg, 1835. Elegantly engraved, illustrated folio broadside, 17" x 21," "Entered According to Act of Congress in the year 1835 by Isaac F. Bragg in the Clerks Office Southern District of New York." Minor toning. Near Fine.
This handsome, rare, evidently unrecorded broadside honors Andrew Jackson near the end of his second term as seventh President of the United States. Jackson's career and presidency stimulated an unusual degree of partisan emotions unmatched by few, if any, other presidents.
A small portrait of Jackson at the center is surrounded by florid, stylized text extolling his virtues as a leader, soldier, and statesman. The print celebrates Jackson as "Preserver of the Union"; "The Dauntless Soldier"; and "The Single-Minded Hero." The text praises his high character, dedication to democracy, and devotion to Union. The broadside credits Jackson for preserving the Union's "Original Simplicity of Structure, And Purity of Worship, The Great, Last Temple of Wisdom on Earth."
Not in American Imprints, Sabin, Eberstadt, Wise & Cronin. Not located on OCLC, or the online sites of AAS, U TN, Harvard, Yale as of May 2025. (Inventory #: 41011)
