Notorious Copperhead Clement Vallandigham was kicked out of the country but still ran for governor of Ohio in 1864. This rare paper ballot is the Democratic anti-war ticket from that campaign. It’s a 9 inch item with clipped corner at upper left. An important Civil War item featuring one of the most intriguing political figures of the war. Our only record of a Vallandigham item in the last twelve years is a CDV. This ballot is a great, rare item from the famed Bill Bowen collection of Ohio locals. The minimum bid has been lowered twice. Come on people, this is Vallandigham!
