A piercing piece of loco foco hocus pocus by Edward Williams Clay, 1799-1857. published 1852. The title plays on Franklin Pierces last name, at the expense of Whig presidential hopefuls Millard Fillmore, Winfield Scott, and Daniel Webster. The print was probably published shortly after the June 1852 Whig national convention, judging from the reference to Scotts nomination. The artist is critical of the Whig partys preference for military heroes as candidates, as manifested by their selection of Scott over his civilian rivals.
