Anti-John F. Kennedy “Wanted for Treason” two-sided poster was an insert into an Italian magazine in 1967. Looks just like a flyer that was distributed around Dallas in the days leading up to Kennedy’s visit. Designed to resemble FBI Wanted posters, with Kennedy displayed as the criminal in question, with frontal and profile photos of Kennedy, along with a listing of seven treasonous "crimes" against the people of United States by the President. This anti-Kennedy campaign may have spurred Lee Harvey Oswald to kill the President. The reverse is exactly the same except it is printed in Italian. Condition is folded with two small tears, VG+ to EX, and it measures 28.625x22.625 ". See addendum at top for further info.
