    Description

    After Nelson Mandela was released from prison, he campaigned to lead South Africa as a politician with the ANC.  He gave a speech on Sunday, February 13, 1994, to a large crowd who cheered his every word.  This poster advertised that speech.  It is a paper poster, glued to the bottom of a flattened "Hunter's Gold" cider case box.
    This is an incredibly rare and important piece of history that documents a moment in time in Nelson Mandela's rise to elected power.  These posters were not made to last long.  Usually, they were discarded after the speech.  I do not believe that you will find another one anywhere, much less in such good condition.
    This is suitable for framing and deserves a place of pride in a collection about this word-changing time, or even in a museum.
    Sold as-is.  We will figure out shipping together.  I propose that I let a FedEx store pack it and ship it.  Whatever Ebay says shipping is per this listing isn't going to be right.
