Description: A decoration that was clearly meant to be displayed over doors and windows, lending public support for the election of Abraham Lincoln. Even from a distance, these pennants are bold and unmistakeable.Unlike modern campaigns, these advertising banners were privately commissioned and doubtlessly produced locally at the time. The aggressiveness of campaing advertising is astonishing, and these would have saturated an area, with the intent of dominating support. These printed banners were supplemented with immense hand painted ones created to span across streets. Raw edged 100% cotton, 4" X 20" as per the original examples.
