Saludo y felicitación al Señor D. Francisco I. Madero al tomar posesión de la presidencia de la República Mexicana
Summary
Broadside shows small bust portrait of a mustachioed man--perhaps Madero--upper center and soldiers and military band on parade below the verses. The text, in rhyme, conveys the virtues of Madero's triumph over threatening natural forces--a metaphor for the Mexican social upheaval during the revolution, the promise of progress for the Mexican nation, and accolades for Madero, as the defender of the Mexican people.
