This picture depicts our 16th President as a father figure. The background is orange colored with his words written on it. His enlarged image can be seen on the left side of the picture. There is also a smaller image of him and his son in a black circle in the top right hand corner with small Victorian designs. The words “A Father of Freedom & Unity” are in between the two images.
