Scope and Content

Black and white postcard. The front shows William McKinley accepting the nomination for his second term as President on July 12, 1900. The image shows President McKinley standing on a platform, flanked by bunting, with many listeners. The caption on the back reads as follows: "PRESIDENT MCKINLEY ACCEPTING THE NOMINATION FOR THE SECOND TERM, JULY 12, 1900 40th Annual Exhibition of Mckinley Stamp Club of Canton - April 3-4, 1971 Photo from original plate in McKinleyana Collection of Mr. & Mrs. George R. Bechtel, Jr. of Canton, Ohio." The post mark reads as follows: "Dervock-Ballymoney, 09 Antrim" and is located beneath the stamp. There is a second post mark that appears to read the same as the first over the stamp. The stamp reads "Ulster '71 Paintings 3P" and has an image of Queen Elizabeth II on the right with an image of a landscape painting on the left. There is also a sticker on the lower right corner of the card which reads " Methodist Philatelic Society 5 Cherry Walk, Cheadle Hulme, Cheadle, Cheshire."
