Governor Election Ballot, Real Republican Prox.

1806 Real Repbublican Prox – This prox is exactly the same as the one in the image SSID:3146073 except for the type design used in the border. During the 18th and 19th centuries when ballots were printed, the printer would set type to print multiple copies on large single sheets of paper and once printed the ballots were cut into individual tickets. Often the printer did not have sufficient type to make all tickets identical which probably accounts for the slight difference in border of the two tickets. 15.9 cm X 13.1cm
