"Jackson's Great Cheese Levee" (1886) by Benjamin Perley Poore scanned from a high school history textbook.
President Andrew Jackson thought of himself as the "Tribune of the People," and symbolized this by throwing a White House party that anyone could attend. Hundreds of people showed up and ate or carried away most of a 1,400-pound block of cheese.
