Description
Post-Revolutionary War to Civil War
Andrew Jackson "Magnanimous in Peace - Victorious in War" & U.S. Presidents Pictorial Printed Cotton Textile Threads #70
1829-Dated, Andrew Jackson "Magnanimous in Peace - Victorious in War" & U.S. Presidents Pictorial Printed Cotton Textile Displaying United States Presidents to Andrew Jackson, Printed in Blue-grey on Cotton Linen, "Threads of History" listed #70, Very Fine.
This Textile is Listed as #70 illustrated on page 78 of the reference book titled, "Threads of History" issued by the Smithsonian. Rare Original Printed Textile, 1829-Dated with blue-grey print on white cotton, measuring 23" x 19", previously mounted to heavy paper board for display. Some vertical dampstaining at left between John Adams and James Monroe, having even overall modest tone, some specks on Monroe's hair, overall a classic design with an image appearing to be the USS Frigate Constitution (Old Ironsides), shown at left center. Prominently shows a large handsome President Andrew Jackson at center within a surrounding inscribed banner frame. Jackson is joined by his Six Presidential predecessors: George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, and John Quincy Adams.
This historic Textile was produced while President Andrew Jackson was still in office, evidenced as there is no date for the end of his presidency. Below his portrait the legend reads: "Magnanimous in Peace - Victorious in War." The border of his portrait reads: "Supreme Commander of the Army and Navy - President of the United States from March 4, 1829 to ...". A Heraldic American Eagle appears to Jackson's left, with an image of the frigate USS Constitution, flying a 23-Star American Flag, is proudly displayed to his right. Ready to be framed for display.
The American Flag shown here flown on the famous frigate USS Constitution (Old Ironsides), actually should have held 24 Stars at that time of manufacture, being dated in 1829. Maine was admitted to the Union in 1820 as the 23rd State, and Missouri was admitted the following year as State number 24. Thus, 24 Stars. News traveled slowly in those days.
