<b>Political</b><hr><b>Anti-Roosevelt Broadside, 1944.</b>
Scarce 23' x 17' political broadside published by the Arlington [Va] County Republican Committee, attacking FDR and Harry Hopkins (Chief Administrator of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration) for the 1935 Florida Keys CCC camp hurricane disaster in which hundreds of World War I veterans died. FDR and Hopkins are accused of being callous and uncaring about the fate of the veterans, and Republicans are urged not to vote for FDR in 1944. Overall toning; otherwise, Choice Extremely Fine.
