Breckinridge and Joseph Lane, is a testament to the fervor and patriotism that characterized this pivotal moment in American history. The image features an intricately overprinted American flag with a portrait of John C. Breckinridge at its center. Encircled by 33 stars in a blue field, symbolizing the number of states at that time, this banner proudly bears the names "President" and "John C. Breckinridge" as well as "Vice President" and "Gen.
