A number of similar handmade signs were freely distributed to spectators at Dallas Love Field on the morning of November 22, 1963. Although the wording on the roughly handwritten signs differed, all referenced "Grassroots Democrats," with some also indicating an affiliation with nearby Southern Methodist University. Slogans on these signs included: "All the Way with JFK," "Welcome Jack," and "We Love Jackie." One of these signs, the only surviving example known to exist, is in the Museum's Collection, 2018.021.0002 - https://emuseum.jfk.org/objects/56406/. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator
