Description | Print shows an Irishman man labeled "Democracy" standing at center, holding a small glass slipper labeled "'84 Presidential Nomination", with Samuel J. Tilden and Charles A. Dana as courtiers standing behind him; on the left, sitting in a chair is Benjamin F. Butler, as a housemaid, holding up a huge foot, an oversized shoe labeled "Unanimous Renomination" is on the floor next to the chair. Butler claims to be "Cinderella" (and like Dickens' "Barkis", he is willing), though the others look with dismay at the size of his foot. |
