Not canceled and unsigned 3.25x5.5" postcard with printed message to President Harry S. Truman addressed to "White House" asking him to invoke his powers under the Civil Rights Act to prevent of the state of Mississippi from executing Willie McGee. McGee, a black Mississippian, was falsely accused of rape in 1945. The black led Civil Rights Congress, probable issuer of this card, launched an international effort, which failed, to stop the execution. They hired Bella Abzug as his attorney. Rallies extended from America to Paris to Moscow to China. Supporters included William Faulkner, Paul Robeson, Josephine Baker and Albert Einstein. The card references "March 20" execution date but after his appeals were exhausted he was executed in Mississippi's portable electric chair May 7, 1951. An important historic Civil Rights artifact. NM. From the Morry Greener Collection.
