Lot #1928:

1877 Gallery of House of Representatives Admittance Card and Electoral Commission Admittance Card - Lot of 3

Two of these 1877 cards allow its bearer admittance to the gallery of House of Representatives to count the vote for the President and Vice-President. Respectively, they are dated February 10, 1877 and February 27, 1877. They are stamped with the numbers 634 and 1103. The third card grants admittance to an Electoral Commission, presumably in 1877, and is numbered 154.

Each card looks to have been removed from a scrap book, as pieces of paper remain affixed to the reverse side with glue. Save for that, they are in NM condition. A1530
