Légende
African-American Democrat politician and diplomat Carl Burton Stokes (1927-1996) was the 51st mayor of Cleveland, Ohio. He took office on 1 January 1968 and was one of the first Black elected mayors of a major US city. An orange bumper sticker printed with black text advocating Carl Stokes for Mayor of Cleveland. The sticker reads [STOKES] across the top half in bold letters, with [For A Better Cleveland] printed in smaller, narrower letters on the bottom half. Information on the Stokes for Mayor Committee is in small print along the bottom of the bumper sticker. In the bottom PR corner is a stamp, mostly illegible, likely a printer's union mark identifying at what shop the sticker was produced. The back of the sticker is covered in a waxy paper over the adhesive, which bears the manufacturer's logo.
