# The peoples' choice, H. Greeley G. Brown

Campaign print for Greeley and Gratz Brown published by Wm. C. Robertson of New York after C. Koenig, headed 'The Peoples' Choice'. Oval portraits are wreathed in oak and olive; vignettes show a printer's composing room, Greeley with his newspaper among a cheering group and Brown addressing an audience. The copyright line reads 1870, which LOC regards as an error for 1872.
