(Ku Klux Klan) Broadside, 325 x 275 mm. (12 3/4 x 11 3/4 in.) ([n.p., n.d.]) advertising a “Patriotic Demonstration” held by the “American Krusaders and the Women of the Ku Klux Klan” in Woodstock, Connecticut, 16 August 1926 and advising that “White, Gentile, Protestants Welcome.”

A scarce broadside printed at the beginning of the end of the Second Klan as reevaluations of crime and corruption within the organization convinced many to leave the “Invisible Empire.” At its height in 1925 the Klan boasted four to five million members espousing a philosophy of “100% Americanism” which in their little world did not include Catholics, Jews, let alone African Americans.

Mounted to a larger board, some light uneven toning and light creases.
