A Bad Egg,Fuss and Feathers,Winfield Scott,Whig Presidential Candidate,c1852

Title: A bad egg. Fuss and feathers
Creator(s): N. Currier (Firm),
Date Created/Published: [New York : Nathaniel Currier], c1852.
Summary: Whig presidential candidate Winfield Scott is pictured as a fighting cock with human attributes. The cock wears fringed military epaulets, a sword, spurs, and a plumed hat. He is just emerged from an egg marked, 'Free Soil Egg hatched at Baltimore June 21st. 1852' (the date of Scott's nomination), which lies broken at his feet. 'Fuss and Feathers' (a popular nickname for Scott) crows, 'Cock a doodle doo! I'm Bill Sewards Cock!!! Whose cock are you?' This reflects public perceptions of Scott as the candidate of antislavery interests in the Whig party led by William Henry Seward, Thurlow Weed, and others.
