Item Description
14x22" cardboard. Produced by "Prothro Lithograph Co. Compton Calif." for a group that traveled to the historic march by bus. Staple holes; top and bottom center, affecting second "L" in "Full", top and bottom corners and one each at middle on left and right edges. Age toning around border extending evenly about 1.5" into the field. Fine. Will display beautifully when framed. Despite the fact that thousands of signs in many varieties were produced for the event that came to be defined by Dr. Martin Luther King's 'I Have A Dream' speech, few have survived.
