Item Description
14x22". Stiff cardboard from 1919 with title "Uphold Your Laws" and quote inspired by Coolidge's actions in police strike. Coolidge and Cox were re-nominated for their respective offices in 1919. By this time, Coolidge's supporters had publicized his actions in the police strike around the state and the nation and some of Coolidge's speeches were issued as a book. He was faced with the same opponent as in 1919, Richard Long, but this time Coolidge defeated him by 125,101 votes, many times more than his margin of victory from a year earlier. His actions in the police strike, combined with the massive electoral victory, lead to suggestions that Coolidge should run for president in 1920. Top has 1" dia. of surface paper loss, 6" corner crease with reverse tape repair, bottom has 4" vertical tear with reverse repair. Overall very clean. Fine. Only example known to us.
