Unrecorded Broadside Mobilizing the Pennsylvania-Germans of Lebanon County to Vote For Polk [Broadside]. [Pennsylvania Germans]. [Presidential Election of 1844]. An die Stimmgeber von Libanon Caunty. [Lebanon County, PA?: S.n., 1844]. 14-1/2" x 11" broadside, text in two columns below headline. Light toning, light soiling and wear to edges, a few minor creases, vertical and horizontal fold lines. A well-preserved item. $1,500. * This broadside urges the Pennsylvania German voters of rural Lebanon County, Pennsylvania to choose Polk over Clay in the upcoming presidential election. It urges them to reject Clay due to his high tax proposals and vote a straight Democratic ticket, which would ensure lower taxes. It fails to say that a large share of Clay's proposed taxes would be used to fund internal improvements, such as roads and canals, that would benefit the local economy. This broadside appears to be unrecorded. No copies listed on OCLC.
