Nice early political promotional comic.

I'd be interesting to find out whether there was a similar promotional comic for Stevenson and Kefaufer, the Democratic candidates. I would love to have that copy. Oh, I like Eisenhower, but Nixon was a red-baiting, anti-Semetic, crook. The only reason Eisenhower put him on the ticket was to appease the far right elements of the party.

I am not aware of ones for Stevenson or Kefaufer, but Harry Truman made one, which is thought to be the first political comic book:

That's really cool. I've never seen that one before! I always love the building up of Truman after the fact. Too bad most people are unaware of how it all turned out for him in the end. Poor guy. (thumbs u

Here's a nice 1939 DC. You might say it's low grade lol Interesting concept for 1939 of pasting a photo head on a comic art body :idea: ??

Had a great time visiting with my buddy David (comics-n-erb) who happened to be in town on business. We did some comic horse trading and I was able to pick up some nice low grade comic goodness :)
