Item description from seller

Broadside in black and red print, measures 17" x 11". Pencil note on verso, faint thumb mark along bottom edge of front panel, otherwise a fine example. The photograph illustrates a white girl waiting for a bus at South Side Elementary, with African American girls in the background. In the 1972 presidential campaign, Alabama Governor George Wallace (1919-1998) ran as a Democrat, positioning himself as a champion of Southern populism and a critic of the federal government's civil rights policies. His campaign gained significant traction in the South, winning him primaries in Alabama, Florida, Tennessee and others. On May 15, 1972, Wallace was shot five times by Arthur Bremer during a campaign stop in Laurel, Maryland. The assassination attempt left Wallace paralyzed from the waist down, effectively ending his active pursuit of the presidency that year, though he remained a symbolic figure in American politics.
