This paper campaign poster has a colored lithograph of the Grand National Republican Banner. The banner has sketches of John C. Fremont and William L. Dayton inside circular laurel wreaths and says "John C. Fremont, The Republican's Choice for President" and "Wm. L. Dayton, Vice President from 1857 to 1861." Behind the wreaths are: Lady Liberty with staff, four U.S. flags, and an eagle clutching arrows. There is a scene of a man plowing a field at the bottom. Text at the bottom says "Grand National Republican Banner / Free Labor, Free Speech, Free Territory."

The National Archives

DocsTeach is a product of the National Archives education division. Our mission is to engage, educate, and inspire all learners to discover and explore the records of the American people preserved by the National Archives.

The National Archives and Records Administration is the nation's record keeper. We save documents and other materials created in the course of business conducted by the U.S. Federal government that are judged to have continuing value. We hold in trust for the public the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights — but also the records of ordinary citizens — at our locations around the country.
