Bumper attachment, Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1930s
notes: label: Description
content: Before paper bumper stickers were invented in the 1940s, cars were decorated with metal signs known as bumper or license plate attachments. The shape of this one promoting Democratic candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt suggests it was intended to be attached to a license plate. This design is similar to one used on other campaign items displayed during FDR’s four victories in 1932, 1936, 1940, and 1944.
