[Rarebooks] FS: Anti-Grover Cleveland Free Trade Presidential Election Card

[Joslin Hall Books & Ephemera]

1888 Anti-Grover Cleveland Free Trade Presidential Election Card.

A clever and quite racist Republican-leaning election card, promoting  
the claim that Cleveland was favored by the British government for his  
stand for lowering tariffs and free trade. Cleveland’s stand for low  
tariffs and free trade was clear enough, but the Republicans then went  
a step further and used the issue to make Cleveland look anti-Irish  
which, given the English government policies of the time, was easy  
enough to do. This card takes it a huuuuuge step further, specifically  
denigrating the Irish to stir up anti-Cleveland sentiment amongst them.

Card. 3.25”x5.25”. Some soil, light wear. $25
