Lot Description
[POLITICS -- ANTI-MASONIC PARTY]. Glorious Tidings! All Hail Pennsylvania!...Intelligence is received that in the city and county of Philadelphia, the majority against Jackson and in favour of antimasonic electoral ticket is 2436!
Norwich, Chenango County, NY: N.p., 6 November 1832.
Visible 8 7/16 x 10 1/4 in. (toned, occasional spotting); matted and framed to 13 x 17 in. (not examined out of frame).
Joseph Ritner (1780-1869), a veteran of the War of 1812, joined the Anti-Masonic movement, considered America's first third party, in the late 1820s. This Anti-Masonic broadside from supporters in New York advertises enthusiastic reports about Ritner's returns in the 1832 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election. Despite the numbers printed here, Ritner would lose to Democratic incumbent George Wolf and President Andrew Jackson would win re-election.
This was Ritner's second attempt at the governorship, he was, however, successful in 1835 and became Pennsylvania's 8th governor.
