TO THE WHIGS OF BERLIN.
[Berlin, CT? c. 1840s]. Broadside, generously margined, 8" x 11-1/4." Several closed margin tears. Lightly dusted. Good+.
A rare Connecticut broadside, in which "A Mechanic," claiming that he "has always belonged to the Whig party and have never voted any other ticket," plans "to vote the Democratic ticket this spring." The reason: the Boss of the local Whigs, Norman Warner, is a dictator who heeds no counsel but his own. "He not only rules the party, but the town; and it is evident to me, that all who support the Whig party in the town of Berlin, support only the will of ONE man."
