Choice President Zachary Taylor Portrait Mourning Rosette
c. 1850, President Zachary Taylor Engraved Printed Oval Portrait on Black Crape Mourning Rosette, Choice Near Mint.
This magnificent, near mint high quality Mourning Rosette measures about 3.5" x 3.25", made of black silk crepe with an outstanding bold 1.25" x 1.5" engraving titled "General Taylor" attached to the center. It's possible this same engraving design was used on a Taylor Presidential Campaign ribbon for which a Cass-mate exists. Some trivial old prior mounting residue on back, while the face appears fresh and vivid, virtually as made. Extremely rare and has excellent eye appeal.
