EDITORS COMMENTS
This rare pro-Jackson satire from 1832 captures the political turmoil of the time with a humorous twist. The image, titled "Old Jack, the famous New Orleans mouser, clearing Uncle Sam's barn of bank and Clay rats," depicts President Jackson as a determined cat ridding the barn of his enemies - the bank and Clay rats.
During this period, Jackson was engaged in a fierce campaign to dismantle the Bank of the United States and reduce its influence on American politics. His veto of a bill to re-charter the bank in July 1832 marked a significant moment in his presidency and solidified his reputation as a champion for common people against powerful financial institutions.
The satirical nature of this print reflects both support for Jackson's anti-bank stance and criticism of his opponents, including Henry Clay. It showcases how political cartoons were used as tools to sway public opinion and shape perceptions during election campaigns in the 19th century.
As we look back on this piece of history through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded that humor has always played a role in politics, offering insight into complex issues while entertaining audiences along the way.
