Descripción editorial

An oversized collection of the most striking and thought-providing presidential campaign posters throughout American history—perfect for political junkies and history buffs alike
 
Shepard Fairey’s instant-classic “Hope” poster for Barack Obama elevated the age-old art of the campaign poster back into the forefront of American awareness. Now, dig through the Library of Congress archives and discover the amazing, kickass posters that are every bit as cool 200 years later!
 
See Andrew Jackson go classy, elegant, and minimalist—while his opponent offers a coffin-laden accounting of all the dead bodies Jackson left behind. Watch as Grover Cleveland decks out his poster with a portrait of his new 21-year-old First Lady; Adlai Stevenson tries really hard to convince everyone not to vote for Dwight Eisenhower; and Richard Nixon grins at us like a favorite TV-sitcom dad.
 
Every poster is backed with colorful historical commentary and additional artwork. Presidential Campaign Posters is the perfect gift for political junkies of all ages.
