The signs on the far right are 1960 Kennedy-Johnson campaign posters. Look closely and you'll notice that the word "Elect" next to "President" and "Vice President" has been torn off. That was likely a clever attempt to turn this out-dated 1960 campaign sign into a gesture of greeting and support for the Kennedys and Johnsons. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
