Item Description
Approximately 24x36” framed. Famous illustrator Lawson Wood has depicted a great race between the GOP elephant and Democratic donkey each being ridden by his famous monkeys as other monkeys cheer from behind the fence. Wood captures great human-like expressions on faces of all of the characters depicted here. Advertising text below reads “Whoever Wins/We Lead/Froedtert Grain & Malting Co. Inc./Highest Grade Malts/ Milwaukee Wisconsin.” Close inspection shows random handling creases likely from poster being rolled before being framed. Does not detract from this delightful illustration from the 1936 Roosevelt vs. Landon race. Displays VF.
