Dick Nixon Volunteers For Nixon-Lodge. This original 1960 presidential campaign postcard features a halftone photographic portrait of Vice President Richard M. Nixon seated on a set of stairs, issued during his high-stakes election bid alongside running mate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. Published by "Volunteers for Nixon-Lodge" (directed by Peter M. Flanigan in Washington, D.C.), the reverse features printed campaign slogan text along the top reading "I'm for Dick Nixon... How about you?" alongside an Allied Printing Trades Council union bug, making this unmailed postcard a quintessential piece of mid-century political Americana and presidential history. Volunteers for Nixon-Lodge (Washington, D.C.), 1960, printed cardstock postcard, marked with organizational publishing credit along the vertical center divider, measures standard postcard size approximately 3.5 x 5.5 inches. Shows expected signs of age and light display wear; displays subtle uniform age toning to the white reverse board and faint corner softening, though the photographic image remains crisp and bold with no major defects observed. See photos for close-up details.
