In the foreground, a street stretches across the bottom edge. On the far side of the street, buildings line the street. Identical political posters stretch across a marquee at center. They advertise for a political meeting featuring candidates Leo Gallagher, attorney, and Sam Darcy, Communist candidate for the governor's office. Two more posters are plastered onto signboards that stand on the sidewalk at far left and far right. The poster at far left advertises for the Communist political meeting. The sign at right advocates for the reelection of Frank Merriam.
