Curatorial Commentary
The partially obscured sign at the back left reads in full, "Let's Barry King John," a reference to the upcoming 1964 election in which the presumed Republican candidate would be Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater.  This was one of the few negative signs that appeared in photographs of the crowds in Dallas that day. - Gary Mack, Curator
