1856rif. 63167New York: Nathaniel Currier 1856. Fremont as an Overland Explorer for the Presidency A cutting satirical cartoon aimed at the great western explorer John C. Fremont and his main supporters in his 1856 bid for the White House. Fremont was the Republican nominee for the presidency and ran on an anti-slavery platform. He was backed by New York Tribune editor Horace Greeley and radical abolitionist minister Henry Ward Beecher. In the image Fremont rides a horse - called the "abolition nag" - that has the face of Greeley. Fremont says "This is pretty hard riding - but if he only carries me to the White house in safety I will forgive my friends for putting me astride of such a crazy Old Hack." The horse is led toward the Salt River a metaphor for political disaster by leading Republican William Seward who proclaims that "Which ever road I travel always brings me to this confounded river I thought we had a sure thing this time on the Bleeding Kansas dodge." Mountains in the background are identified as Kansas and Nebraska. The Greeley-headed horse addresses Seward: "Seward it seems to me we are going the same Road we did in 'fifty two' but as long as you lead I'll follow if I 'go it blind.'" Henry Ward Beecher who was known to have furnished antislavery emigrants with firearms to participate in the Kansas struggles follows behind Fremont's horse his arms laden with rifles. A mountain man - evoking Fremont's exploring past - cautions the Pathfinder: "Ah! Colonel - you've got into a bad crowd - you'll find that dead Horse on the prairie is better for the Constitution than Abolition Soup or Wooly head stew in the White house." The embossed seal to the bottom left corner is that of F.A. Caspari of Baltimore "Dealer in Books & Stationery." This print is scarce. The Currier & Ives catalogue raisonné locates only the copies at the Chicago Historical Society and the Library of Congress. OCLC adds only two copies one at the American Antiquarian Society and another at the University of Rochester. A fine satirical print of John Fremont and his abolitionist supporters in the 1856 presidential election. Light even tanning lightly foxed. Old vertical fold running the length of right edge.

1856rif. 34450Washington: Published by the Granite State Club of Washington 1856. 24pp. Caption title as issued. Stitched untrimmed curled or lightly chipped at blank extremities. Printed in two columns per page. Very Good. Opposing the Republican Party and John C. Fremont's bid for the presidency this pamphlet charges that "Black Republican members of Congress" sought "to drive out pro-slavery settlers from Kansas which has resulted in the recent scenes of violence and bloodshed there." Proof of the charge is found in the published proceedings of the Emigrant Aid Society as well as other documents. The Republicans' purpose "of getting up a war in Kansas" is "to help elect Fremont. For the greater the disturbance in Kansas the more clear would be the apparent 'villainy' of repealing the Missouri compromise." Further proof is found in the proceedings "of the Black Republican Abolition Convention that nominated Fremont." The Conspiracy -- including participation by the "Coal-Black Republicans"-- is examined in all its details. Not in Sabin or LCP although there are a number of institutional locations.
