Additional Details

This patriotic print features a flag-bearing eagle atop a globe dominated by a map of the newly re-United States. The flag has 36 stars, and adorning the border are the names of 36 states through Nevada (1864) but not including Nebraska (1867). It appears to be mounted on a scrapbook leaf. We can trace no other examples in OCLC or on line.
