Item Details

Description

Cromwell, CT - Circa 1870’s This image of the notorious political operator known as Boss Tweed has captivated collectors for decades. It’s effective use of political satire is dead on the money. Tweed had become infamous for his outrageous political maneuvering for personal financial gain. Here we find him “pocketing” our deposits and nodding his thanks to us for the “bribe” we have offered to him. Absolutely stunning original condition and very possibly the finest known example with Hall’s Patent. Material: Cast Iron Provenance: Donal Markey
