Democratic nominees Bryan and Sewall broadside

Democratic nominees Bryan and Sewall broadside

Campaign broadside published by Amos Currier, San Francisco, for the Democratic ticket nominated at Chicago on 10 July 1896. Oval bust portraits of William J. Bryan of Nebraska (president) and Arthur Sewall of Maine (vice president) flank a coin and the words 'Gold and Silver Unlimited Coinage', under crossed flags. The LOC summary reads the wording as a reference to Bryan's 'Cross of Gold' speech.
