Abstract: A large, printer's stock cut of a defiantly patriotic motif designed for use on political banners and placards. The design features a somewhat combative-looking bald eagle, wings spread and standing on a globe. It clutches an olive branch, arrows, and a streamer with the title motto. Behind the eagle is a field of stars. Below is printed: "Mammoth Eagle Cut. No. O. Price, electrotyped, $20.00." Physical description: 1 print on wove paper: wood engraving with letterpress ; image 34 x 66.9 cm.

Johnson and Company produced the woodcut in 1857 or 1858.; The Library's impression was deposited for copyright on January 9, 1858.; Published in: American political prints, 1766-1876 / Bernard F. Reilly. Boston : G.K. Hall, 1991, entry 1858-1.; Title from item.
