| Description | Cartoon shows former President Herbert Hoover and retired General Douglas MacArthur in the two towers of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. Down below, the city celebrates with balloons marked "Ike." Drawn after the nomination of General Eisenhower as the Republican presidential candidate in July 1952, the cartoon, with its caption, comments on the fact that Hoover and MacArthur, both of whom had retired to the luxurious Waldorf-Astoria, were largely forgotten by their Republican supporters. |
