This poster portrait sets Theodore E. Burton apart from other images of Ohio politicians through its format: a poster meant for wide public display rather than a formal studio portrait. Burton built a long public career in Ohio, serving in the U.S. House from Cleveland and later in the U.S. Senate, where he became known for his work on rivers and harbors and on federal spending for waterways. Posters of this kind were commonly used in campaigns and public events of the era to make a politician's face familiar to voters. The record does not give a date or printer, so the design itself is the best clue to its purpose and period.
