Not really flattering to any of the subjects in it, but pretty interesting. There's even a Norman Mailer card in it (Joker), I wonder if it's his first card.

They can be had on Ebay pretty cheap.

I’ve got a couple of the sets, 71, 96, and I think 2008. I prefer realistic portrayals of people, but they’re pretty fun and cheap sets to fill in gaps. There is lots of presidential sets but outside the Oval Office, not a whole ton even for non-obscure and long-serving historically significant officials. Good fun to flesh out my history boxes with some of the oddballs and unusuals
