A man stands in front of a polling place. In one hand, he holds a sign that reads "Defeat the Traitors," and "Virtue, Liberty, and Independence," the latter being the state motto for Pennsylvania. He stretches out his other hand to offer a coin purse. His wrinkled clothes have holes, and his nose is dark and drippy (from drinking?). His apron reads: The regular ticket; the country will be saved., Text: To make frothy speeches, and electioneer, / There's no one doubts, but that you're a honey, / And always ready, so the people swear, / To serve your country for a little money., Provenance: McAllister, John A. (John Allister), 1822-1896, collector.
