1798 Martyrs Irish Rebellion United Irishmen Silk Handkerchief Broadside History

  

Very good condition for such a fragile, ephemeral item. Creased at old folds, several pin holes at corners and scattered about center panel, 1 tiny break to silk, few spots very faint dust soiling, else crisp and bright, with the illustrations fresh and bold, and remarkably clean.

This is one of at least 3 commemorative hankies for the 1798 Rebellion, but they rarely appear in the marketplace. Here's your chance to add this amazing piece of Irish history to your collection.
