Democratic Anti-Greenback Satirical ''Bond,'' 1864. Fine or better, ragged margins, tape repair. Official looking political propaganda ''Bond'' protests the payment of Union soldiers and the working classes in the new non-redeemable Greenbacks, payment in gold of wealthy bond holders. Fighting words of the text attack preferential treatment of wealthy, spelling out the return to bond holders even on the sale of coffee, tea and sugar. Includes green-imprint re-worded Greenback, a fascinating political item.
