Description:
Boston & Charlestown, MA: Free Democratic State Committee & Republican Club, 1854. Leaf. Very Good. Two early contribution receipts; one from the Boston Republican Club in 1856 and the other from the Free Democratic State Committee of Massachusetts in 1854. The Free Democratic Party was one of several splinter political parties (e.g., Liberty Party, Free Soilers, etc.) that formed in opposition to the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which repealed the Missouri Compromise and opened up the new territories of the United States to slavery. The Free Democratic Party quickly banded together with other anti-slavery parties to form the Republican Pary in 1855. The Free Democratic Party receipt was printed by J. S. Potter & Company; the Republican Party receipt is manuscript. Both receipts are made out to Oliver Smith, a prominent Massachusetts businessman, philanthropist, and statesman.

It features a portrait of a long-faced, dour Harrison with a rustic log cabin scene alongside. Two soldiers and a civilian are drinking cups of "hard cider" drawn from a barrel sitting next to the cabin's door. A plow, symbolizing simple hard-working famers stands next to the men. An imprint under the scene reads "Sold by Peter C. Jones, 110 State St., Boston." Beneath the illustration, the unnamed donation coordinator has written, "It being necessary in order to defray the expenses of the Whig Celebration of the Fourth of July ensuring in addition to the cost of the collations [probably food, drink, and fireworks] which has been fixed at 50c to raise the sum of about Six hundred dollars We the subscribers agree to pay the sums placed against our respective names." Forty-seven Whig subscribers signed the pledge on two pages, and the list of…
