Item Details
Description
Martin Van Buren: 1848 Free Soil Party Ribbon. 2 3/8" x 7" silk ribbon with engraved portrait of standing Van Buren holding a scroll reading: "Free Soil. And Freedom of the Public Lands to Actual Settlers". The issues raised by this ribbon presaged Bleeding Kansas. In 1860, Lincoln would campaign on the promise of passing a Homestead Bill granting free land to white settlers. Van Buren took enough votes away from Cass in 1848 to throw the election to slaveholder Zachary Taylor. Excellent condition. From the Warren G. Lee Collection.
