A rare flyer denouncing John Kennedy distributed in Dallas, Texas on the eve of the President's assassination.
Robert Surrey printed approximately 5,000 of these flyers at the behest of Major General Edwin A. Wallker, who had resigned from the Army after being reprimanded for distributing political propaganda to his troops while stationed in Germany in 1961. Walker, a member of the John Birch Society, made an unsuccessful bid for governor of Texas in 1962. Surrey distributed these flyers in the days immediately preceding Kennedy's visit to Dallas on 22 November 1963 and were placed on car windshields and newspaper racks by anti-Kennedy activists.
