MAMMOTH HOG Poster | 1863 Grand Celebration | Come See It

Come See It! The 800-Pound Mammoth Hog of 1863.

This poster is a high-quality reproduction of an extremely charming and unique piece of 19th-century Americana. It's not a call to war, but a call to party! This 1863 broadside from Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, advertises a "GRAND CELEBRATION" where the star of the show is a "MAMMOTH HOG," purported by "many Good Judges" to weigh a staggering "800 POUNDS!"

The design is a delightful example of classic printmaking, from the illustration of the prize hog to the manicules (pointing hands) urging you to "COME SEE IT." The true charm, however, lies in the earnest and good-natured pitch at the bottom, which promises this is "the Best Proportioned Big Hog Exhibited to the Public this Season" and that "we expect to have a good time any how." It's a wonderful slice of life from the Civil War era, perfect for a kitchen, dining room, or any space that needs a touch of historical whimsy.
