- Description
- Commemorative print depicting the participation of African American troops in the only major battle fought in Florida during the Civil War. Shows an African American regiment from the 8th U.S. Colored Infantry advancing against Confederate troops hunkered down behind fortifications in the left distance. The troop is led by a white officer on horseback. Behind a single cannon, the first line of men has their guns drawn and aimed. Two rows behind is the African American flag bearer. He holds an American flag with a gold streamer reading "8 U.S. Inf[antry]." Two rows of African American soldiers advance from behind him. Dead soldiers and two dead horses lie to the advancing troop's left. A white soldier uses one of the dead horses as a shield while firing. To the far rear of the advancing troop, a white officer on horseback gives directions to another white officer on foot. An African American soldier assists an injured fourth white officer who holds his hand to his head as they walk toward the officer on horseback. In the far left foreground, African American soldiers survey the scene, fire a rifle, prepare a rifle to fire, and lie dead near an overturned dray and ammunitions locker., In the right background, white troops man cannons as a bomb blasts near them. Palm and pine trees as well as train tracks line the clearing in which the battle ensues. Smoke billows from the many gun and cannon blasts. The Battle of Olustee was fought on February 20, 1864 in Baker County near Olustee Station on the Florida, Atlantic, and Gulf Central Railroad. Union troops, led by Brigadier General Truman Seymour, met reinforced Confederate troops under the command of General Joseph Finnegan when on an expedition to capture Florida. Union troops entered the battle piecemeal, were barraged, and were forced to retreat to Jacksonville. Reserve forces from the Massachusetts 54th and the 35th United States Colored Troops provided cover. Union forces never fought Confederate forces from behind fortifications, nor in a clearing as portrayed in the Kurz & Allison print. The Battle of Olustee was the second bloodiest battle of the war for the Union., Name of publisher and date from copyright statement: Copyrighted 1894 by Kurz & Allison - 76 & 78 Wabash Ave., Chicago., Purchased with the Davida T.

- Description
- Cartoon criticizing Great Britain's support of the Costa Rican opposition to American pro-slavery filibuster and self-installed president of Nicaragua William Walker, as a violation of the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty, which barred American and British development of Central America. Depicts a rotund John Bull, with a patch over one eye and guns strapped to his chest, trampling the "Clayton Bulwer Treaty." He hands a rifle to a Costa Rican man, attired in a straw hat, poncho, and torn and worn pants, who carries a dagger in his right hand and declares, "Death to Los Americanos!" Bull remarks to the Costa Rican that he "agreed not to meddle" and will help settle the "hash" of the filibuster, while under his breath he mutters "after we've settled their hash, I'll settle your hash." In the right is a chained and caged "Russian Bear," and on top of the cage is a "Turkey," symbolizing the nation (allusions to British success in the Crimean War). In the left, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, their several children playing beside and with them, mock the "fuss" that Emperor Napoleon III of France makes over his young son. Napoleon gushes that the child's "foot shall fit se Neck of France" as his son's white woman nanny, holding a bowl of "PAP" (i.e, political patronage), discusses the King's assistance to Costa Rica and her "diapering" of the "blessed baby."
