Item Description
1" litho by Greenduck Co. Chicago. Hake #31. Design featuring a teapot emblazoned w/slogan "Doom." References the Harding administration's "Teapot Dome" oil scandal, long considered the cabinet level scandal by which all others are compared. The bribery scandal saw Secretary of the Interior Albert B. Fall become the first sitting cabinet official to be sentenced to prison. Some trivial paint wear but still NM for all intents and purposes. Only the second we have offered in our 55 years.
