The text in the banner around the outside of the scroll reads:
Uncle Tom's Cabin by
Harriet Beecher Stowe is a Picture of American Slavery not overdrawn, since
Southern Publications themselves give as facts accounts of characters and
incidents fully matching any thing this work presents -- 115,000 copies or
230,000 vols have been sold in 6 months. Jewett & Co. Publishers.
