Featuring cartoon depicting a Klan lynching mob w/"FDR" in the foreground, his arm around a hooded "Truman," saying "I Should Be Very Happy To Run With Harry Truman. He'll Bring Real Strength To The Ticket!" After Truman was selected as FDR's running mate his possible Klan membership in the 1920s was exposed for political gain. Not examined out of frame. Displaying moderate handling wear most notably a 6.5" horizontal crease affecting the "De" in "Dewey." Extremely Fine. A well above average example of this scarce and powerful poster that has been professionally framed using UV blocking plexiglass.
