Few campaign posters from the period name a Communist ticket so plainly. This one places Gus Hall's name for president above Jarvis Tyner's for vice president. Hall led the Communist Party of the United States for decades and ran for the presidency several times, and the catalog's 1975 or 1976 date fits the 1976 race. Posters like this carried a small, often marginalized party's message onto streets and into union halls during an election year. The Library of Congress received the print as a gift from Gary Yanker.
