Republican campaign material
Légende
The Union must and shall be preserved. For President Abraham Lincoln of Illinois. For Vice President Hannibal Hamlin of Maine.' Print shows a campaign banner for the Republican ticket. Oval bust portraits of the two candidates are enclosed in rustic bent-twig frames, intended perhaps to recall Lincoln's much-publicized backwoods origins. A rail fence appears above the portraits, draped with a banner with the motto, "Free Speech, Free Homes, Free Territory." An eagle stands on top of it, spreading his wings, surrounded by American flags. Below, between the portrait ovals, stand two American labourers flanking a shield marked "Protection to American Industry."
