Civil War-dated manuscript broadsheet, titled “Show Your Colors,” one page, 6.25 x 8, dated April 27, 1861. This original Civil War broadside was probably used in the Aurora, NY area. Authored by a Dr. E. Leffingwell, with verses such as “eternal vigilance is the price of liberty,” “Citizens of Aurora… let us show that we love our country… let us one and all irrespective of party be prepared to protect our own homes.” In very good condition, with intersecting folds, mounting remnant to reverse, and scattered toning and light staining. Particularly important in that it is the handwritten original and perhaps even a draft of a printed version.
