Redware Rundlet, Hard Cider & Log Cabin, William Henry Harrison Campaign
Possibly Maine…definitely northern New England, Extremely Rare & Unique Date/Period: Circa 1840
Measurement: Height: 5"
Material: Redware, beautiful cream glaze
Condition: Very good with only a few trivial vestiges of time, [tiny] chips at barrel rim
that do not distract, displays very well.
Additional Information: Ovoid barrel form having incised bands centering a Log Cabin
and “HARD CIDER” …Great early political piece. Wonderfully glazed red earthenware
rundlet that is attributed to northern New England, and probably made in Maine,
although this type of glaze is found with potteries in central and northern New England.
During the months before the 1840 presidential election, the Whig party designed a
campaign that pitted a heroic William Henry Harrison against the aristocrat Martin Van
Buren, whom they nicknamed “Van Ruin,” blaming him for the disastrous banking
failures of 1837. The Democratic party chose to emphasize Harrison's advanced age,
with one paper commenting "Give him a barrel of hard cider, and ... a pension of two
thousand [dollars] a year ... and ... he will sit the remainder of his days in his log
cabin." This negative campaign did not produce desired effect. The Whigs turned the
campaign to their own benefit, declaring Harrison as "The Log Cabin & Hard Cider
Candidate". Unlike Van Buren who was a spoiled dandy, Harrison was a man of the
people from a humble farm in North Bend, Ohio. Although Harrison had come from a
wealthy family, his frontier life was successful in connecting him to the public. The Whig
party produced campaign paraphernalia featuring log cabins and barrels of hard cider.
Harrison campaigned vigorously and won. Harrison served only one month as president
before dying of pneumonia on April 4, 1841.
