This print takes us back to the historic presidential campaign of 1952. The image showcases a unique artifact from that era - a battery-operated bowtie supporting the Republican candidates Dwight D. Eisenhower and Richard Nixon, affectionately known as "Ike-Dick". The bowtie, an ingenious piece of political memorabilia, symbolizes the enthusiasm and support generated by this dynamic duo during their bid for the highest offices in America. It serves as both a souvenir and an advertisement for their campaign, capturing the essence of American politics in the mid-20th century. The photograph highlights not only the craftsmanship of this artifact but also its cultural significance. It represents Americana at its finest, embodying patriotism and civic engagement. This relic is a testament to how individuals proudly displayed their allegiance to their chosen candidate during this pivotal moment in history.

Such artifacts offer us a glimpse into past election seasons while reminding us of our shared democratic heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by The Granger Collection in New York, we are transported back to 1952 when Ike-Dick fever swept across America.
