Description: Here are five, 1 3/16" decals from when Franklin Roosevelt ran for his unprecedented fourth, consecutive term as president. On January 6, 1941, shortly before his Inauguration for his (unprecedented) third term, FDR gave his eighth State of The Union Address to Congress. In it, he stated four universal freedoms which the rest of the free world was fighting for while engaged in World War Two against Hitler in Germany, Mussolini in Italy and Tojo in Japan, who were destroying these ideas. We, in fact, were not combatants as of yet. It took the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor a few months from then, for us to declare war the following December. But most people in the U.S. knew our involvement in this World War was coming, and it was on their minds as FDR spoke to the radio audience. The Four Freedoms were Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, Freedom from Want and Freedom from Fear. (Not that many of you younger people would ever remember such a thing because historic thoughts like this aren't taught to you in school any longer. Especially that free speech idea). By 1944, these main principles were used by Roosevelt supporters on various campaign items, such as these little gems which use a play on words to make a campaign slogan. These are like airplane model decals, in that you wet the back of them to stick on a window or something but are unused. They are in nice condition, but please enlarge our images to judge this for yourself so you can be happy with your purchase. We are members of APIC and sell only authentic presidential (and other collectible) material so buy with confidence. We'll be happy to combine S & H costs on multiple purchases. Shipping on this will be $5.00, carefully packed, first class with tracking. 5957
