Description | A sheet music cover illustrated with the American nativist device of an eye in an aureole of light. The watchful eye (a commonplace in Masonic iconography) here symbolizes the Know Nothings' vigilance against "foreign influence" in American politics and government. For an earlier instance of the nativist use of this motif see the certificate of the Order of United Americans (no. 1848-1). |
