    antique HANDWRITTEN FREEDOM POEM fraktur folk art signed Lucy Ann Slocomb 12yo
    This listing is for the 7.25"x11.5" paper with handwritten Patriotic American poem.    Hand-colored wreath in green accents the brownish ink.
    The poem is called "Ode to Freedom".    It is signed Lucy Ann Slocomb, Aged 12 Yers
    It seems to reference maybe the revolutionary war and has a religious message.
    The penmanship is beautiful for a 12 year old.
    This paper is either from the late 1700s or early 1800s.
    Fair freedom blissful child of heaven
    Today we celebrate thy birth
    Thou richest gift to mortals given
    Those magi bright of heaven on earth
    Hail Happy land of helth and peace
    Remote from europes blood stain shore
    Far far beyond protecting seas
    Waves roll between and ever roar
    Paper is yellowed and somewhat fragile, especially at folds.
    Lovely early americana art.
    Excellent heritage piece to frame too!
    Excellent original early family and/or town genealogy, history, antique, collectible heirloom and/or ephemera.
