Lincoln campaign transparency
|
This Lincoln transparency, made of cheesecloth tacked
onto a triangular frame, was used in a parade to rally
the German vote in New York in 1860. An oil lamp in the
center illuminated the legend on the three panels: Music
of 1776.—We have Faith in Abraham—Old Abe, Ich Mein.
Prince of Rails. |
