EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a piece of American political history from the 19th century - a Wide Awake political type glazed marching shako circa 1860. The Wide Awakes were a youth organization that supported the Republican Party and campaigned for Abraham Lincoln during the presidential election of 1860. The shako, with its distinctive design and patriotic symbolism, was worn by members of the Wide Awakes as they marched in parades and rallies to promote their candidate. This particular piece is beautifully preserved, showcasing intricate details and craftsmanship typical of the era. The stark white background emphasizes the clean lines and bold silhouette of the shako, making it stand out as a symbol of political activism and civic engagement. It serves as a reminder of the passion and dedication that individuals had towards shaping their country's future through democratic means. As we reflect on this historical artifact, we are reminded of the importance of participating in our democracy and exercising our right to vote. The legacy of those who came before us lives on in pieces like this marching shako, inspiring us to stay "wide awake" to current events and engaged in shaping our nation's future.
