The chair Buchanan was seated in when he won the nomination for President of the U.S. |
This is the plaque at the top of the chair that reads: Occupied by the President of the National Democratic Convention at Cincinnati, June 3rd, 1856. |
The detail of the reddish-brown leather chair can be seen here. The leather is held in place by upholstery tacks. The chair looks to be hand-constructed by a master craftsman. Click to enlarge image. |
