Item Description
28x41" w/"New York 258" union bug at bottom center. 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. Small loss in top right margin and faint age toning from prior matting around perimeter that will easily frame out. Otherwise moderate handling. VF and will frame to Exc. A much above average example of this scarce and powerful poster.
