With a dramatic and inventive composition, this fraktur is distinguished by the bold portrayal of an American eagle and may be referring to the birth of a new nation as well as the birth of Joel Bilger. Drawn entirely freehand, this work was probably made in Center Township, Union County, Pennsylvania.
