DescriptionHand-shaped campaign flyer supporting John F. Kennedy for the 1960 presidential election. The flyer is shaped like a right hand (palm facing the viewer) showing suit and shirt cuff at the wrist, reaching out as though to shake hands with a potential voter. The text on the hand is red: "'Give Me Your Hand' Pull the 1st Lever for Jack Kennedy and His Team." The reverse is blank. There is a small green spot on the suit cuff.
