GRAND, NATIONAL, WHIG BANNER. PRESS ONWARD!
   
Complete Explanation:
Campaign banner for Whig Party candidates in the national election of 1848. The banner, promoting Zachary Taylor and his vice presidential running mate Millard Fillmore, is almost identical to Currier's "Grand, National, Democratic Banner" (no. 1848-6) differing only in the candidate portraits, campaign mottos, the lettering on the globe (the current print omits the word "France"), and the artist's portrayal of the eagle (reversed in this version).
