These are from the 1928 presidential election, which had Alfred E. Smith running against Herbert Hoover. Smith was the first Catholic nominated by a major party (Democrat). Each is 8 inches in diameter. The background and print design is a midnight blue, almost black, on off-white.

There is a small piece of metal riveted to the back, to attach the sign to either a stovepipe or vent. Below the name on each sign is the patent mark that reads: "Pat. Pending - S. S. Adams Co. - Asbury Park, N.J." These have some scuff marks and scratches.

You will get both signs / vent covers for one price.
