Vermont Green Mountain Gilead Poster 1868

A very rare Vermont broadside from 1868. I have 2 listed and bought them in Vermont almost 10 years ago.  While they are both almost identical, this one has slightly smaller margins and has a 1.5" tear from the edge that is 1/2" into the background. This is not noticeable once when backed and framed. There is also a light crease in the upper left corner. This is about 15" x 20" with margins of about 1 ". Some of the margin in the upper right corner has been lost, but again, this will not be relevant to the framing.

Complete poster text reads: "Green Mountain Boys-Gathering Materials of Paine's Celebrated Green Mountain Balm of Gilead and Cedar Plaster "Universally acknowledged to be the best Plaster ever known.
