Abstract: A proof specimen on paper for a campaign banner for Southern Democratic presidential candidate John C. Breckinridge. The banner consists of an American flag pattern printed in reverse.

Breckenridge; Vice President, Gen. Jos. Lane." Physical description: 1 print on wove paper : woodcut with letterpress, printed in red, blue, and black ; sheet 22.3 x 33.7 cm.
