"'84 Presidential Puzzle"
The words printed on the Presidential Puzzle are "This sheet represents four unknowns. The puzzle consists in folding it in such a manner as to secure at will the portraits of either Blaine, Logan, Cleveland, or Hendricks." John Logan was running mate to Republican candidate James G. Blaine, while Thomas Hendricks was running mate to Democratic candidate Grover Cleveland. In the 1884 presidential campaign, Blaine was accused of corruption, while Cleveland was accused of fathering an illegitimate child.
