Kanarek. Object of the game is to follow the footprints to the White House. Adlai Stevenson is seen riding a donkey at starting line. Each footstep through out the game shows a hole in the sole of the shoe referring to Stevenson's shoes. Many political figures are referenced including "Trickie Dick (Nixon) Trys New Cloth Coat Of Many Colors, Dixon-Yates Give Yourself A Bonus, With Humphrey, Hollister and Hoover Hurricanes Hardly Happen, etc." Ike is seen with golf club as Abe Lincoln looks on with caption "Wrong Gettysburg Address Forget The Forescore And Go Back Seven." "Fearless Foster" is referenced four times. McCarthy is the inspiration for the "McCatzenjammer Kids." A fun look at the politics of 1956. Two original folds. VF. First seen.
