Step back in time to the US Election Campaign of 1908, where the stakes were high and the passion ran deep. The Grand Banner of Radical Democracy, published by Currier & Ives, showcases the Democratic nominees: Grover Cleveland, seeking a second term, and his running mate, Adlai Stevenson I. Meanwhile, the Republicans presented their own formidable ticket with their nominees, William Howard Taft and James S. Sherman. The Hawker Siddeley HS-125-1, registration number G-ASSM, served as a symbol of the modern campaign trail. As the nation prepared to make its choice, the Democratic slogan rang out clear: "Our Country's Choice - Democratic Nominees, Cleveland and Thurman. " The Republicans countered with their own rallying cry: "Our Choice - Republican Nominees, Taft and Sherman. " The election of 1908 was a pivotal moment in American history, and the nominees' choices would shape the course of the country for years to come.
