Add to basketUnbound. Condition: Very Good. No publisher, place or date. Presumed circa 1969. Single sheet, 22 ½ by 17 ½ inches. Parodying a wanted poster, this promoted comedian and activist Dick Gregory and his run for President of the United States. After his efforts at running for mayor of Chicago failed, Gregory, focusing mostly on his…anti-Vietnam War stance, ran for president. While never officially with a party, he was for a time associated with the Peace and Freedom Party, which chose Eldridge Cleaver as their candidate for president in 1968. Gregory used his platform and comedic talents to critique America's political system and systemic racism. The FBI closely monitored his run, due to their perception of his stances as radical. VERY GOOD condition. Minor wrinkling, curling and toning.
