Mugwump group [photographs], 1884-1886.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/52709548

Twenty-nine portrait photographs of members of the Mugwump movement, taken between 1884-1886. The Mugwumps were members of the Republican Party who, during the election of 1884, left their own party candidate, James G. Blaine, to vote for the Democratic nominee, Grover Cleveland. Subjects include, among many others, president Grover Cleveland and his wife Frances Folsom Cleveland, as well as Charles Russell Codman, George S. Hale, Theodore Lyman, and Moorfield Storey. Most of the photographs are identified as having been taken by "Notman" in 1884, probably the Notman Photograph Company of Boston, Mass. All of the photographs are identified, and all are black-and-white.
