EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the 1936 Presidential campaign in Harwick, Vermont. The image showcases a vibrant banner proudly displaying the names of Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John Nance Garner, who were running for President and Vice President respectively. Painted with oil over a photograph by Carl Mydans, this piece exudes an air of nostalgia and historical significance. The scene takes us back to a time when American towns were adorned with colorful advertisements that lined their streets. In this early morning shot, we see the banner hanging prominently against a backdrop of quaint buildings and bustling activity. The town's residents are going about their daily routines as they pass by this powerful symbol of democracy. As FDR sought re-election during his second term, he campaigned on his New Deal policies which aimed to uplift America from the depths of economic depression. This banner serves as both an advertisement for his Democratic Party and a rallying cry for those who believed in his vision for change. Carl Mydans expertly captured this moment in time through his lens, showcasing not only the physical presence of the banner but also its impact on people's lives. Through this photo print, we are transported to 1936 Vermont - witnessing firsthand how political canvassing played out in small-town America. The Granger Collection has preserved this remarkable piece from history so that future generations can appreciate its significance within our nation's democratic process.
