1892 campaign scarf
Throughout presidential campaigns, especially in the 19th century, many unusual items have been offered with the images of the leading candidates and their campaign slogans. This is a silk scarf created for the 1892 campaign of Grover Cleveland and Adlai E. Stevenson. (Stevenson was the grandfather of the Democratic standard bearer in 1952 and 1956, Adlai Stevenson.) It shows the images of both candidates and the slogan of “Tariff Reform.” Somewhat scarce in such good condition, what was the final auction price realized in 2005?
