Title A name given to the resource National Political Chart from the 1860 Presidential Campaign Description An account of the resource This was a political chart published probably prior to Abraham Lincoln receiving the Republican Party nomination. Charts were generally ways in which the public learned and communicated about Presidential candidates, though H. H. Lloyds & Co would have done this as a commercial product. On the frame of the chart, every President from George Washington to James Buchanan is present with their facial sketch and write-up. In the middle, all of the major candidates to be considered for their parties nomination is listed. The vice president names would have been included with corresponding discussion. Also, the Constitutional Union and Southern Democratic Party nominees are present. The Abraham Lincoln background does not stand out any more than other candidates, seemed like a dark horse. There were also text articles which included the four major party platforms. One article which stands out is on Sam Houston, exalting his abilities. Lastly, a map of the US is included for geographical orientation mostly.

Title A name given to the resource Gary Hannig Campaign Sign Description An account of the resource This is a campaign sign to Re-elect Gary Hannig for Illinois State Representative. He served in the Illinois House for 30 years, from 1979-2009. It is impossible to tell from which campaign the sign belongs, due to its excellent condition and classically styled font. Rather than use the term, "Democrat" or any other terminology, the sign has an image of a donkey, the long-regarded symbol of the Democratic Party.

Ossie Langfelder won the 1987 Mayoral election and held the office until 1995. He lost the election that year in his attempt for a third term. He was a Democratic candidate.

Title A name given to the resource 1860 Campaign Tickets for Democratic and Republican Party Description An account of the resource These are two separate tickets placed side by side in the photo. The one on the left is a Republican Party Illinois Election Ticket as verified by Library of Congress. The one on the right would be the Democratic Party Election Ticket, researching James Allen who name is found under governor on the ballot we know he served in both the 33rd and 35th Congress of Illinois before unsuccessfully running for Governor. The year 1860 is handwritten on both ballots. Richard Yates was the Republican nominee for Illinois Governor who won that election and remained in that office throughout the Civil War. The way people voted is much different from today. These tickets featured in the Church collection may have been part of a party newspaper. Typically, voters could cut them out and present them at a polling place.

Title A name given to the resource Lincoln Political Banner from 1860 Election Description An account of the resource This political banner for the 1860 Presidential election is likely a copy of a lithograph on linen featuring the Republican Party nominees Abraham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin. "The flag was meant to hang like a banner in parades and other political spectacles, so that Lincoln's face would be oriented vertically. The printer liberally changed the spelling of Lincoln's first name ("Abram") to accommodate his design." The banner contains 33 stars symbolizing how many states were in the Union.

Title A name given to the resource 1940 Campaign Buttons for Election with Church, Willkie and Green Description An account of the resource The campaign button with the name Church on it and year 1976 has little history with it. Church had served as Deputy Mayor of Springfield between 1986 and 1995. We don't know if Church ran for office in 1976 or had a family member who had. We do know that he worked as curator for the Paul Findley Congressional Office Museum and Archival Collection at Illinois College in Jacksonville. Church had volunteered for Findley's campaign during the seventies. Findley served the 20th District of Illinois in the U.S. House from 1961 to 1983. Another button with the colors of red, white and blue and the names Brooks, Willkie and Green goes all the way back to 1940. This was a pinback button. Wendell Willkie received the Republican Party nomination in 1940 for President, He lost the election to President Roosevelt, Illinois had all 29 electoral votes go to Roosevelt too. Willkie has no connection to Illinois; he is buried in Indiana. The others, Wayland Brooks ran for U.S. Senator and Dwight Green for governor, Illinois. The accompanying buttons with photos may have been of these men.
