Dick...Nixon, that is.
 
I saw this lot at a local PC show today and couldn't resist:

After Tricky Dick lost the 1960 election, he went back to Cali and tried a run at governor. These two pieces came from his start-up for that campaign. The Lincoln dinner ticket stub is signed "Dick Nixon" and was for the same person as the recipient of the flyer, who must've been quite a fan of Dick. The group also came with this 1968 invitation:

Clearly, a lifetime supporter of all things Dick-related.

"Ladies Invited"; even those who were really into Dick had room for the ladies too...

Cool to see the connection between Nixon & George Romney with the bottom piece.

Those two had an interesting political relationship during the 1968 Republican primary & when Romeny was serving as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
