Account,bloody deeds,General Jackson,J Binns,1828

Title: Some account of some of the bloody deeds of General Jackson
Related Names:
Binns, John, 1772-1860.
Date Created/Published: [Philadelphia? : s.n.], 1828.
Summary: One of the well-known 'coffin hand bills' originated by Republican editor John Binns in his campaign against presidential candidate Andrew Jackson. The six coffins across the top of the broadside represent six militiamen executed under Jackson's orders during the Creek War in 1813. Other coffins represent soldiers and Indians allegedly condemned and executed by Jackson. The broadside's text is a catalog of these and similar atrocities attributed to the candidate. A woodcut scene at lower right portrays Jackson assaulting and stabbing Samuel Jackson 'in the streets of Nashville.' Another version of the handbill, reproduced by Lorant, has the same text but substitutes a reversed copy of the cut at lower right.
