Description

Description: This 1864 Union Presidential Ticket for Ohio lists Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson for President and Vice President, as well as, the names of Ohio’s twenty-one electors. The ballot is decorated with a chest-up vignette of Lady Liberty wearing a plumed helmet and brandishing a sword labelled “Union” while rays of stars and stripes radiate behind her.

Though this ticket was originally printed for Warren County, Ohio, someone has crossed out “Warren” and written “Allen” in period ink.

The incumbent President Abraham Lincoln was re-elected during the 1864 election, winning nearly all the state electoral votes, including Ohio’s, as well as the popular vote.

7 1/8″ x 3 1/8″. Item #AM00271
