(PLEASE READ AND CIRCULATE.) THE PRESIDENCY ---WINFIELD SCOTT---FRANKLIN PIERCE; THEIR QUALIFICATIONS AND FITNESS FOR THAT HIGH OFFICE.

[Washington: Towers, 1852]. 16pp, caption title [as issued]. Printed in double columns, disbound, light toning. Good+.

The last Whig presidential candidate, Scott was swamped by the handsome Democrat Pierce, who was also a Mexican War hero. This document supports Scott and dumps on Pierce, who is found wanting on a number of significant issues. Miles, whose copies were also disbound, notes two issues distinguished by slightly different punctuation marks in the title.
