John F. Kennedy large-format presidential campaign poster issued during the 1960 election, featuring a bold black-and-white portrait of Kennedy set against a red, white, and blue field with the iconic slogan “Leadership for the 60’s.” The poster was issued by Citizens for Kennedy and Johnson, 261 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C., and represents one of the most recognizable and enduring visual statements of Kennedy’s campaign.

This striking graphic design captures the optimism and modernity that defined Kennedy’s candidacy and helped usher in a new political era. The oversized format gives the image strong visual impact, making it particularly well-suited for display and a centerpiece example of mid-century American political ephemera.

The poster presents exceptionally well, with strong color saturation and only minor signs of age wear including fold lines and a few slight dings and bends. Measures approximately 28 x 41 inches.

John F. Kennedy (1917–1963) was the 35th President of the United States and one of the most influential political figures of the 20th century. Elected in 1960, he inspired a generation through his vision of public service, Cold War leadership, and ambitious initiatives including the Apollo space program. Original campaign posters from Kennedy’s presidential run remain among the most sought-after artifacts of American political history, symbolizing both his legacy and the cultural shift of the early 1960s.
