Item Description
12x18". Cardboard. Two grommets just above shield for fastening to parking meters or other signs around downtown DC on the day of Truman's inauguration. Even aging, as well as some faint, scattered creasing. Otherwise light handling wear. VF. Prior to 1949 these signs were not produced making this the first in the series. Given the fragility of the material this is far and away the toughest of the set to obtain.
