QUERY: PORTRAIT VIGNETTES SOUGHT FOR FRACTIONAL CURRENCY BOOK

Jerry Fochtman is working on a new book, and could use assistance from readers in locating some desired images. -Editor

I'm helping work on a book related to U.S. fractional currency and I'm looking for some vignettes of some of the following people:

  • William Meredith Spencer M. Clark
  • William H. Crawford
  • Samuel Dexter
  • William Fessenden
  • Ulysses S. Grant
  • George Washington
  • William T. Sherman
  • Francis Spinner
  • Edwin Stanton

Also looking for individual vignettes of Meriwether Lewis & William Clark. I've attached a vignette of William Meredith which is of the style that I'm looking to find. I don't have any reference materials on vignettes so don't know if they even might exist.

I know some of our readers own examples of the Treasury department vignette books; perhaps some of these contain the vignettes Jerry seeks for his book. Who can help him obtain digital versions? -Editor
